Hints for a User-Friendly Site |
|
|
-
On your first page include a link back to the GCS home page (http://www.greenwichcsd.org)
-
Include
a link to your email
-
Use hyperlinks within your document to make accessing your
pages easy.
-
Check your links frequently. We all hate pages with “dead
links’!
-
If your users will need Acrobat Reader, be sure to include a
link to Adobe's download page. -
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
-
Keep scrolling to a minimum
|
|
|
Naming files |
|
|
-
File
names should be short, simple and to the point. No spaces…no caps.
-
Be sure to save often and use File…Preview in Web Browser
and/or the Preview view frequently!
|
|
|
Notice that there are four (4) views of your site |
|
|
-
Design – where you create your site
-
Split – view HTML code and design view
-
Code
– view HTML code only
-
Preview
– test your links and view as it will appear on the web

FormatPainter |
 |
the
perfect tool when you want to “copy” the format of a word. |
|
|
Example:
you've formatted a heading to use on all the headings of your
document. You don’t have to change each word’s style, font, size
one-at-a-time. Here’s what you do: |
-
Place the
cursor in the text whose format you’d like to copy.
-
Click once
on the FormatPainter tool in the formatting toolbar.
-
Highlight
the text you’d like to change and click the left mouse button.
|
|
|
If there are multiple words to change,
double-click the FormatPainter tool instead of clicking once.
This will keep the FormatPainter active until you click the
FormatPainter button one more time to turn it off. |
|
|
Toolbars you might use |
|
|
-
In
the menu bar click on View…Toolbar
-
Standard
and Formatting should already be selected.
-
I
find the Drawing, Picture, and Tables toolbars to be very
useful.
