Working with HTML editors

In all examples below, it is IMPORTANT to note that you must BUILD your applet or flash file to the SAME folder as your web site is in or the instructions will not work.

Dreamweaver
  • Design your page in Dreamweaver
  • Design project file in 1 Cool Menu FX Tool
  • Build the applet or flash file
  • Click 'Copy to Clipboard' in 1 Cool Menu FX Tool on the Output tab
  • In Dreamweaver, move the cursor to where you want the project
  • Select Edit->Paste HTML
  • Save and view the html file in your browser
FrontPage

You are able to add the menu code and preview the menu inside of FrontPage:

  • Open target HTML page in the FrontPage.
  • Change to the HTML code view of that page.
  • Go to 1 Cool Menu FX Tool, load your menu, go to the Output tab and click the Copy HTML to clipboard.
  • Put the cursor where you want your menu in the HTML code (if you are unsure just put a word on the page in normal mode and paste the HTML after the word - note you can only paste it when you are in HTML mode (see tabs at the bottom)...you have now added the applet HTML sucessfully to the page.

Next you must put the contents of the Build folder in your personal web folder.

  • Open the build folder using link on the Output tab.
  • Copy the content of the Build Folder to the root area of your Frontpage Web.

Thats it! Your page should work now in the preview of the editor and will upload sucessfully using the standard publishing approach.
