The
list includes the eight media types recognized by the W3C as well as another one from the specification,
all. It??™s considered a best practice to add a media attribute to your page and recommended to use all to
cover every media type, screen for computer screen and print for printer.

Designing and Crafting Core Pages Part II
If you??™d like declare your style sheet for multiple media types, enter the desired types in a
comma-separated list through the Media field of the Attach External Style Sheet dialog box.
Rendering different styles
Dreamweaver??™s Style Rendering toolbar complements the development of separate style sheets. After you??™ve
defined a style sheet for a specific media type, such as print, you can use the Style Rendering toolbar to select
the desired media type and Dreamweaver will render your page as if it were that medium. To display the
Style Rendering toolbar (see Figure 7-7), choose View ??? Toolbars ??? Style Rendering or right-click (Controlclick)
any other visible toolbar and choose Style Rendering. Two media types??”aural and Braille??”are not
included in the Style Rendering toolbar because their rendition is beyond Dreamweaver??™s scope.

The Style Rendering toolbar quickly changes the media type for Dreamweaver to emulate.
