Applying a CSS Layout
Creating AP Elements with Dreamweaver
Dreamweaver enables you to drag out embedded styled
tags, also known as AP elements, creatively
and precisely??”and without coding. You can drag out an AP element, placing and sizing it by eye, or
choose to do it by the numbers??”it??™s up to you. Moreover, you can combine the methods, quickly eyeballing
and roughing out an AP element layout and then aligning the edges precisely. For Web design that
approaches conventional page layout, Dreamweaver even includes rulers and a grid to which you can snap
your AP elements. Creating AP elements in Dreamweaver can be handled in one of three ways:
n You can drag out an AP element after clicking the Draw AP DivAP Div button on the Insert bar.
n You can add an AP element in a predetermined size by choosing Insert ??? Layout Objects ??? AP Div.
n You can create an AP element with mathematical precision through the CSS Styles panel.
The first two methods are quite intuitive and are explained in the following section. The CSS Styles panel
method is examined later.
