This arrangement is fine for
debugging, but if you want to continue using your object, it??™s more efficient to create a button image for it.
The following section shows you how to complete this task.
The temporary unknown object image appears only if the object is stored in one of the main
categories of the Insert bar, such as Common, Layout, Forms, and so on. If you save your
object in a folder that corresponds to an Insert bar menu??”such as Images, Media, or Frames??”you??™ll see
the broken image symbol instead.

You can create custom objects such as the qtMovie object shown here.
Building an object button
Object buttons are GIF files, ideally sized at 18 pixels square. To make the object button, you can use any
graphics-creation program that can save GIF files. If your button image file is not 18 pixels by 18 pixels,
Dreamweaver resizes it to those dimensions. Your button can be as colorful as you want??”as long as it can
still fit in an 18-pixel square.

Creating and Using Objects
To create an object button, you can open and modify any of the existing GIF files for the standard
buttons. Just be sure to use the Save As command from your graphics program??”and not
the Save command??”to save the modified version.
