Enhancing Productivity and Web Site Management Part VI
Drag-and-Drop Creation of Library Items
Asecond option for creating Library items is the drag-and-drop method. Simply select an object or several
objects on a page and drag them to the Library category (either the preview area or the Site list pane);
release the mouse button to drop them in.
You can drag any object into the Library panel: text, tables, images, Java applets, plugins, and/or ActiveX controls.
Essentially, anything in the Document window that can be HTML code can be dragged to the Library.
Similarly, as you might suspect, the reverse is true: Library items can be placed in your Web page by dragging
them from the Library category and dropping them anywhere in the Document window.
As noted earlier, you can also use the drag-and-drop method to place Library items in the
Document window.
When you add a Library item to a page, you notice a number of immediate changes. As mentioned, the
added Library item is highlighted. If you click anywhere on the item, the entire Library item is selected.
Dreamweaver treats the entire Library item entry as an external object being linked to the current page. You
cannot modify Library items directly on a page.
