Animating layers in a Dreamweaver 4 timeline
Many web designers add visually stimulating animation to a web page to catch the visitor's eye. Programming animation in code requires knowledge of Dynamic HTML (DHTML) and JavaScript, but you can create web page animation directly in Macromedia Dreamweaver without having to write one line of code. You simply add a layer to a timeline, define its animation path, and let Dreamweaver write the code for you.
You can use a Dreamweaver timeline to animate any object you insert in a layer—an image, text, table, form, and so on. You can then move, resize, and affect the visibility of the layer across a time continuum. If you aren't already familiar with using layers, see the Using layers to design a web page article before reading this one.
