Testing

After applying the template to all the pages, inserting the content into editable regions, inserting images and applying CSS styles. You would have probably linked all the pages together in the template itself (navigation) using an include.

Once the site is complete you are ready to upload it to your server and go live. Before that however, you should test the site to in various browsers, at least Netscape and Internet Explore to make sure it is working all right. If you use Site Relative paths (as you must in includes) the Preview in browser feature will not work. You will need to test on a web server.

Other tools that Dreamweaver provides :

1. In Site Manager: Site > Check Links Sitewide
2. In Document Window: Text > Check Spelling
