6. Close the editing window by clicking the Close button or choosing File ??? Close.
After you??™ve completed the editing operation and closed the editing window, you can open any Web page
containing the modified Library item to view the changes.
If your Library item is styled with an external style sheet and you??™d like to see how it renders
while editing, use Dreamweaver??™s Design Time Style Sheet feature. From the CSS Styles panel
Option menu, select Design Time; when the Design Time Style Sheet dialog opens, select the style sheet from
the Show Only at Design Time area.
Dreamweaver now allows you to use native Dreamweaver behaviors inside Library items. That means you
can place a navigation bar, a link for a pop-up window, or any other Dreamweaver behavior inside your
Library item. When the Library item is added to the page, the accompanying JavaScript is also added.
You cannot use some features to the fullest extent when editing Library items. These include
custom JavaScript and styles. Each of these modifications requires a function or link to be
placed in the tags of a page??”a task that the Dreamweaver Library function cannot handle for
styles and custom JavaScript.
