i'm new to dreamweaver mx 2004. two questions:-

1. My article is about 5 pages long. I want to set up paging
ability so users can navigate back and forth. How can I do this in dreamweaver?

2. This may be related to html. I have some images to be displayed. Since they are pretty big in display, I want to
display the replica version next to the text. Then when user clicks on it, it will bring up a child window.

thank you.

that is simple all you do is make a popup for the image

<a href=&quot;image.jpg&quot; target=&quot;blank&quot;><img src=&quot;thumb.jpg&quot;></a>

and for the first part you just make your 5 pages and have links that go to the next page and to go back a page you can use

<a href=&quot;javascript:history.back()&quot;>back</a>

you can go back x amount of spaces by saying

history.back(-x)

thanks. if i have 5 pages, how can i dynamically show
all the pages like

<previous> Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 <next>

so a user can click on the specific page and go there directly.

thanks

i guess i'm looking for a way to not tie the paging to the article. sometimes i have 10 page article, it will be a lot of
work to hard code them individually.

what server language would you be using -- the php forum or the asp one could help a lot

but you would need to store your articles in databases and then just break them up depending on what language you use

thanks for all the help :) They're a bunch of documentation; so just plain html. I use apache to serve the pages. I think
I'm gonna try and find or write a javascript function that
can serve this functionality.
