I assume you are familiar with the Microsoft Visual Web Developer? they make use of something called a Masterpage, which is kind-of like a template. It has a place for content from other pages, and the Masterpage is then merged with the other pages. However, this works only on a Windows Server.

My question is: is there an ability in the "paid" version to create your own templates? or does one use styles? (I'm not that familair with style sheets as of yet, and therefore don't know their full capabilities).

Like this maybe? http://test.vanlonden.org/index.html

I made this as an example for the dutch users. The tekst "Stramien?Template?Sjabloon?" and the three black buttons are in a separate file. With the function "Insert .D.H.E. file" this file was inserted in the three pages that appear when you use the button's.

Yes, that's it!... now, can you point me to a place (a sample maybe?) where I can see exactly "where" the template file was inserted? Sorry, but I'm new (2 hours) to the Dynamic HTML Editor. So far, I like it, but it's Help file leaves a little bit to be desired. :D

In the left-sidebar in D.H.E. is a green button with a white arrow on it.
Use it and choose the option "Insert .D.H.E. file".

The D.H.E.-file you insert can be made outside the project. If you change it, alle the pages where you inserted it in will be changed after exporting.

Londen.

Thank you... that's what I was looking for... now, if you don't mind, one last question. How, using Dynamic HTML Editor, does one make a style sheet? It appears to me that what you described above would have the same effect as a style sheet... yes?

When exporting, D.H.E. makes stylesheets.
I believe one per page. I don't know what's going to be in the next version, but maybe there will be a possibility to make a stylesheet for the whole project.

Bye, Londen.

Sorry, the list will be posted when the program will be released because some others vendors are copying me :-(
Don't expect many new features but big features like the Graphical Canvas, a graphical image editor with integrated RollOver and RollClick ;-)

I understand... do you have a release date yet?

And, how about adding a couple of toolbar icons.. one for "close" and another for "close all"?

I have a feeling I am missing something simple. Here is my problem. I have a standard label with text in it. I put a link on some text. I can make an over style just fine or use an external class style, but you can't tell where the link is in the text because it is styled exactly like the other text. Do I have to edit the program style sheets every time I export to at least make the link underlined? So I am clear, I am speaking of the a:link style. The default in the label is to make it exactly like the rest of the text.

If you have selected the text for making the link, just change the text-attributes in whatever you like (underline, bold, color)

"Toolbars are already full of icons ;-)"

OK... then how about a shortcut to close and close all? or maybe a function key? It's really a pain to have to go to File -> Close, rather than one click with the mouse.

Great program, and I'm looking forward to version 4.0

Why? Simply click on the top/right tabulator, there is a "X", just click it to close the active window

I don't want to close the window... I just want to close one/all of the tabs without having to go to the File menu... oh well, I see this is going to be a losing battle... I'll save my energy for more serious matters! :D

Hello Davide,

Fot this I used http://www.wondershare.com/e-learning/demo-creator/demo-creator_overview.html of which I got a free copy here http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/.

There are many other programs for this type of work and I was looking for one but right at that moment this one came available for free.

I am dutch after all so a free version is always preferred[2 H:)].

I was planning of creating some examples for the newbies here but I thought I'd better wait until the new version 4 is out.

The review of the software is below and it mentions a couple of freeware alternatives like wink and camtasiaia studio free---definitely not as good there is also a 16 minute review that mentions several paid alternatives.

I have tried loads of them and in the end only three were any good.

In order of quality:
Demo Builder (most expensive)
Flash Demo Builder (medium priced)
Wondershare (cheapest)
