The Select Parent Tag command??”keyboard shortcut Ctrl+[ (Command+[)??”
highlights the tag immediately surrounding the present tag. Going in the other direction, the Select Child
Tag??”keyboard shortcut Ctrl+] (Command+])??”selects the next tag, if any, contained within the current
tag. Both commands are available under the Edit menu. Exercising these commands is equivalent to selecting
the next tag in the Tag Selector to the left (parent) or right (child).
Although it works well in Design view, unfortunately the Select Child command does not
function in Code view.
Adding Java Applets
Java is a platform-independent programming language developed by Sun Microsystems. Although Java can
also be used to write entire applications, its most frequent role is on the Web in the form of an applet. An
applet is a self-contained program that can be run within a Web page.
Java is a compiled programming language similar to C++. After a Java applet is compiled, it is saved as a
class file. Web browsers call Java applets through, aptly enough, the tag. When you insert an
applet, you refer to the primary class file much as you call a graphic file for an image tag.
Each Java applet has its own unique set of parameters??”and Dreamweaver enables you to enter as many as
necessary in the same manner as plugins and ActiveX controls.
