Tutorial Description - Sometimes it can be easy to forget your audience when designing a Web page in Dreamweaver 3. You forget that there are people out there who are using a 28.8 Kbps modem to connect to your Web page, or are using an older browser that doesn't have all the latest plug-ins and capabilities.
If you want your Web page to be seen by the widest audience possible, you need to be aware of download times, or how fast your page loads in a user's browser window. If you use Flash or Shockwave in your page, you need to make sure users without the plug-ins are either directed to a non-Flash page or are prompted to download the plug-in. There are several simple steps you can take that will allow your Web page to be seen by a wide audience.
