So I just finished the first page of my website and would like to start another page, how to I preserve the layout and some of the features (banner, buttons) in my tables when I create a new page?
You must save the page you just created as a template, and then use this template to create the other pages. There are options for doing this in the menus. Search and you will find. Good luck.
right, you must save it as a template page which will generate a .dwt extension. You need to define also editable content where new contents will be added when you generate a new page. all fixed items like images etc will be locked when you create a new page from the template. But first you must define your site to make it work. Using a template can make things easy for you since you only have changes on new items added for every page and not redesign/repeat the whole page. note: I'm talking about use of templates in dreamweaver.
