2. Download the Missing CD:
See McFarland's page Dreamweaver CS3 Tutorials and click "Download the tutorial files."

Save the folder "MM_DWCS3" onto the top level of your USB drive (on the same level as the "www" folder so your folders at the top level of your USB look like this"

MM_DWCS3
nmw
www

3. Copy the "Chapter01" folder from "MM_DWCS3" to your "exercises" Folder
Your folders should now look like this:

Important:
Every time you begin a new McFarland Chapter exercise, copy the chapter's folder from "MM_DWCS3" to your "www/4230/exercises" folder and work from there.

4. Open Dreamweaver...
and follow the directions for creating and saving a new Web on pages 44-45 (steps 1-8).

5. Define a "Local Site"
Create a new folder called "newpage" inside of your "exercises" folder (www/4250/exercises/newpage).

Follow McFarland's directions on pages 34-35 for setting up a site in Dreamweaver for a particular project or exercise. You will use this same process for each of the exercises in the McFarland book

6. Create a Web Page
Follow McFarland's directions for Creating a Web Page on pages 35-38.

Save the result into a new folder "www/4230/exercises/newpage"

7. Start the Homework
If you have time, begin the homework of completing the Dreamweaver Test Drive tutorial on pages 38-63.

>>Important
On page 43 (Step 7), McFarland tells you to select the folder "Chapter01" from the "MM_DWCS3" folder. Instead, select the copy of the folder "Chapter01" that you copied into your "exercises" folder.
