I'm not a newbie, I just been out of it for a while, my last site was in DW 3
back in 01, then I did a Flash makeover in 02 and want re do my site. If you
look in the link you will see what I want to do. i just need to know the best
way to do it. I now am in DW8 , any suggestions after looking at the BASIC IDEA
link?

What version of DW will you be using? If DW8 or DWCS3, they both come with
sample layouts that are exactly this.

Where are the sample layouts?

Your 'basic idea' is a frameset. But most folks (including me) or going to
encourage you to NOT go that route. They are hard to build if you don't know
what you are doing, add usability problems, and require additional code if
you want to make it accessible and search engine friendly.

OK, found a nice templete. Am I right to say that if I had 10 pages of info I
would copy and link the same page each page as a different name with different
info

example
main templete,html
nav 1 link to main templete2 (different page name)
nav 2 link to main templete3 (different page name)

so on and so forth

so I would be changing the info on each templete.

Is this the best way to do? I was under the impression that I would be able to
build a page with the nav left and top always remaining and the middle be the
page that changes, I see where it would give me the same effect if I did it the
way I explained. Am right here??

Reason I ask is a did a Flash site sometime ago and I was able to load an swf
/html page in the middle while leaving my nav bar.

But you are the expert.
