dreamweaver template?

[adfnoobman]

i downloaded a file of website templates , they are in win rar format, my question is how do i open these templates within the dreamweaver sofware facility.

.rar is a file compression, similar to a zip folder.

the way to open them is to use winrar

http://www.rarlab.com/

it's downloadable from here

hope this helps

i can open the winrar file, but my problem is actually getting the downloaded file to open within dreamweaver basically i dont know what to do

is it a template page you have downloaded, or a whole site.

if it is a single page, then just extract it to where-ever you want it, then go on file/open, and select the file.

if it is a whole site, (will probably be a folder containing pages and images ect.), the when you open dreamweaver, go on site, manage sites, then select new. navigate to the folder containing your site and select it from there.

**make sure that it is not a .zip folder when you extract it, can cause problems
