Making templates in Dreamweaver

[Milagh]

Hi,

1st of all: Great CMS, Ryan! And now on with the Q.  

Can I just grab 1 of the existing templates, open it up in Dreamweaver and start editing? Ofcourse keeping the phpcoding intact, seeing as that I am NOT a person with php knowledge.
 
And if it is possible, are there any special things to look out for as to not to destroy any dependencies?

Looking forward to the replies,

Milagh

to my knowledge, it is possible, if you leave the WB php code intact. and put them in the right order. Just install wb and test it...

looking forward to see a template

OK, will just give it a try on a copy of one of the templates.
If it all goes well, I'll have my brother take a crack at some designs.
He's the gfx guru in the family. Check 1 of his earlier sites.

You will need to install the Anark plugin for it to load. Think it's provided on the site.

Yes you can, I do it all the time. It makes editing them a breeze.

Yes, the site is empty. He isn't working on the site anymore. He was just playing around with the Anark application and Photoshop. I know he has other projects, just don't know where he keeps them.

Silverfeces:
So the templates can be edited in Dreamweaver. Allright! Makes live easier. Was playing around with a template yesterday and ran into a little snag. maybe you can help. Here's the snag.

Found out how to move what where (php code), but want to make the menu horizontally aligned. Problem is, that if I do that and if there are sublevels, the menu structure partly moves to vertically again.

Is there a way and if so, what do I edit, to make the menu horizontal for both toplevel as well as sublevel. And are there other pages besides the template index.php that I need to edit?

Next question would be:
Can I incorporate the menu php code inside a Javascript? If so, any tips?

And finally:
Can you or anybody else give me the groups of code that need to stick together on what pages?

Help is greatly appreciated,
