In this circumstance, linking in the standard template manner wouldn??™t work

Enhancing Productivity and Web Site Management Part VI
because you??™re effectively linking to a number of files and not just one. To accomplish this goal, you??™ll need
to use a special syntax in your href attribute, like this:
type=???text/css??? />
As you see later in this chapter, the double-@ signs and parentheses characters are generally used to designate
template expressions. Here, they??™re used to tell Dreamweaver not to alter the href value. These types
of links will obviously need to be coded by hand.
Another variation of the more typical template workflow is to store your dependent files??”such as images,
includes, and CSS style sheets??”in the Templates folder. Dreamweaver novices often take this approach
because it makes sense to them to group all your assets in subfolders immediately below the current page.
While is generally a solid practice when creating sites, it??™s not the way Templates are intended to work.
However, Dreamweaver is flexible enough to be used this way, but only if you make a change to your site
definition settings. In the Site Definition dialog box, switch to the Templates category (Figure 28-3) and
clear the Template Updating checkbox.
