Copying the sample files

If you haven't already done so, copy the sample files from the Dreamweaver application folder to a folder on your hard disk.

To copy the sample files:

1. Create a new folder called Sites-Local in your user folder on your hard disk.

   For example, create one of the following folders:

2. C:\Documents and Setting\your_user_name\My Documents\Sites-Local (Windows)
3. /Users/your_user_name/Documents/Sites-Local (Macintosh).

Note: On the Macintosh, there's a folder called Sites already in your user folder. Don't use that Sites folder as your local folder; the Sites folder is where you place your pages to make them publicly accessible when you're using the Macintosh as a web server.

4. Locate the GettingStarted folder in the Dreamweaver application folder on your hard disk.

   If you installed Dreamweaver to its default location, the path to the folder is as follows:

5. C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Samples\ GettingStarted\ (Windows)
6. /Applications/Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004/Samples/GettingStarted (Macintosh)
7. Copy the GettingStarted folder into the Sites-Local folder.

After copying the GettingStarted folder, define the folder as a Dreamweaver local folder. (See Defining a local folder.)
