The next 2 weeks

I have been set a deadline for when I have to have my work handed in and completed by. I have two weeks and what I will be doing is updating my blog daily letting you all know what I have been up to each and every day. Today what I have been doing is making pop up windows for my portfolio. At first I was confused by the whole idea but once I read it through and learned how to do it, it was really simple and easy. What you must do to make a pop up window is create an image in photoshop of what you want the link to be E.G. BLOG which is one of mine then save that image as a JPG image. Save it as BLOG1.JPG then change the colour of the image to one that fits your website then save that as BLOG2.JPG. then you must go onto dreamweaver and click where you want to put the image. Once you have done that click on insert then image objects then rollover image. Once you have done that you need to put your two images in, the first one being what the colour will always look like and then second one being the one which is a different colour when you hover your mouse over it. This is how you make a rollover link. Now you must make it a pop up window this doesn't mean opening it up in a new tab. what you must do now is click on where your image is and then click window and then behaviours you should see a small side window pop up and it will have something like this in it
<A> onmouseout  swap image restore
<A>onmouseover swap image

Then in the third box you must click in it and then click the + sign at the top then click onto open browser window, choose the width, length and names, save that and you should be good to go.
