10. Select all the other AP elements and set them to Show. Click OK when you are finished.
11. Leave onLoad (the default) as the event to trigger this action.

with desktop publishing tools can quickly learn to work with

tag can be styled for layout purposes using CSS.
n Dreamweaver calls a drawn out
tag with embedded CSS styling an AP element.
n AP elements are visible only on fourth-generation and later browsers.
