You can define a default extension for each document type in Dreamweaver. This means that if your server
requires all ASP files to have the .dan extension and all your ColdFusion pages to have the .joe extension,
you can change the extension to fit your needs. Simply enter the desired file extension, with a leading
period, in the Default Extension field.
Default Document Type (DTD) option
A document type or DTD is a line of code found at the top of an HTML page that lets the browser know how
to render the following file. DTDs are also used to validate the page against a chosen set of specifications.
