I'm currently making a website in Macromedia Dreamweaver, and am having issues with the flash buttons feature.

I can get buttons up and running, with links and so on, however, I cannot get pages called by the buttons to open in the relevant frame of a frameset, despite choosing the option in the 'create button' dialogue box, they will invariably open a new tab.

This has not been an issue with normal text links.

Does anyone have any experience with this issue?



On another issue - the design view of dreamwaever turns out to be out of scale, so that things like spacings and font sizes appear a different size in dreamweaver to a browser - I cannot find a setting anywhere to rectify this, does anyone know where it might be?

Regards

I'd flee before everyone starts shouting 'Use word pad!'

On a more helpful note the design view is often very wrong to what it looks like in current browsers. I would try to just edit the font sizes in code view so you know they are the sizes you want them to be in a browser.

Notepadd ++ & www.htmldog.com & photoshop & Firefox = Success. ;) :p
 
Avoid framesets and flash buttons, bad bad bad. Dreamweaver needs updating to remove these things :D

Use css for buttons, looks a lot nicer. And do away with the frames, so 90's :cool:
