Website: Slices

Slices are used to move a Dreamweaver document over to fireworks. They literally ‘Slice’ up the document to where key actions are going to happen.

Below I have ‘Sliced’ the document up to highlight where all the rollover effects are that link to state 2 in the page, which includes most of the text and pictures.

You also have to slice State 2 to match up with the original page so the roll over behaviours work correctly. This is displayed below.

Lastly, to enter the text in Dreamweaver you have to add slices to where the text will go which is indicated in the picture below in a brighter colour. The reason I didn’t do the headings and titles in Dreamweaver as well is because they are bigger. The text that goes with the individual articles is much smaller so needs to be more detailed and precise, and you can achieve that in Dreamweaver.
