Viewing Options
Dreamweaver allows you to work with your web page in several different views. This document discusses the various views and their options.
Viewing Options

| Environment | Purpose | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Allows you to create and edit your page in an interface similar to that of Microsoft Word. This is a WYSWYG (what you see is what you get) interface. |  |
| Split | Displays both Code and Design views. |  |
| Code | Allows you to add, modify, and delete the HTML code for specific or advanced web page design. |  |

NOTE: An asterisk (*) in the tab indicates that changes have been made to the web page since it was last saved.
