Hi Janine
I have recently upgraded to CS5 from CS3, and have also upgraded to your CS5 Dummies book.
In CS3 I frequently used Insert Media Flash button, but it doesn’t seem to be there in CS5, nor can I find any reference in your book. Has this function been moved, or has it been removed, which wouldn’t be good for me! If it has gone, do you have any suggestions as to what I can use instead for my link buttons?
Thank you for your time.
Ken
Hi Ken,
Thank you for buying my book. Sorry to confirm your fears, but the Flash button feature was removed in version CS4. Today, most professional Web designers use CSS to create visual effects for links.
You’ll find a tutorial on a common technique for this in the Dreamweaver section of this Web site (these CSS features work the same in CS3, CS4, CS5, and CS6):
Here’s a link to the article about How to create a navigation Bar with CSS.
I hope that helps you find the best solution for your links and I wish you all the best with your Web site,
Janine
