Opening page files

You lay out and develop the HTML pages for a site in Adobe GoLive document windows, opening the pages from the Files tab of the primary site window or a site view. You can keep several document windows open at once, in that way also maintaining the broad view of the site that the site window and site views offer you. For information on working in document windows, start with Setting Up Pages and Page Layout Basics.

For information on opening other types of files, see The File Mappings tab.

To open an HTML file in a document window:

Do one of the following:

Double-click the file in the primary site window or in one of the site views.

Select the file in the primary site window and click the Open button (
