Photoship to Dremweaver

    What I'm looking to do is design the background/template of my website in Photoshop and then move it into Dreamweaver so I can then edit (put headings, tabs, forms etc) of top of the design I have created in Photoshop. Can I do this and if so, how?

    Thanks in advance,
    Max :)

    The easiest way to do depending on if you're going to add code or not would be to use slices.

    You can use rulers by going to view -> rulers.

    Then to use slices hit K.

    You can then cut the images however you would like, then save them for web.

    As far as I know (which is not very much) one way of doing that is using tables in dreamweaver. Make a single cell (1 row, 1 column) table and put the image you made in photoshop (jpeg or gif format) as the background. Then you can go about making rows and columns inside the table and arrange them according to your needs...

    I would recommend taking some tutorials on HTML and CSS so you can transfer it. Could you please send me the file in PM? I could maybe give you some pointers.

    Yeah, you can do that but you shouldn't use tables for a web page layout unless you're showing table form data (like a forum)

    have a look here
