Email
Links and Automatic Dates
Adding
E-Mail Links
Linking
to an e-mail address makes it easy for your visitors to contact
you from a web page. You should always include some method
to allow visitors to correspond or interact with someone in
your organization.
To
enter an E-Mail link:
Place the insertion point on any line of text. Click E-Mail
link on the Common Objects panel -OR- choose Insert|E-Mail
Link.
The text
for your email link does not have to be your email address.
As seen in the example here, your email link text can say
one thing, and be sent to any email address.
Another
way to insert an email link is to highlight text that you've
already typed and goto the LINK text box in the Property Inspector,
type mailto:, followed by the email address. Make sure
you type the colon and no spaces.
Adding
a date automatically
Sometimes
you will need to keep track of the date when you last modified
a page in your site. Dreamweaver lets you place the date and
time on your pages to track this information. The date and
time can be updated automatically so you don't have to do
it.
To insert
the date: Place the insertion point on the line you want the
date to show up. Click Date on the Common Objects Panel -OR-choose
Insert> Date to place the current date on the page. OK.
Choose
the format you would like the date to appear. Select "Update
Automatically on Save" to update the date on your page
each time you save your document.
