Panels:
For basic web designing tasks, many of these panels may not be needed. Fortunately, these panels can be closed, making the main Dreamweaver screen less cluttered. Here is a quick run-down of the panels in Dreamweaver MX 2004:

Design:
This panel controls CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) Styles and Layers.

Code:
This panel allows you to fine-tune your code with some pre-set examples (such as navigation and form elements).

Application:
This panel is meant exclusively for managing database functions embedded in web pages. Since this is a basic tutorial, we will not go into depth about databases in Dreamweaver MX 2004.

Tag Inspector:
The Tag Inspector will allow you to fine-tune and change certain attributes, specifically in the Code View.

Files:
Of all of the supplementary panels in Dreamweaver MX 2004, you will probably find the “Files” panel the most important and useful. It is in this window that you organize files related to your web page or site, and is the main mechanism for uploading and downloading files to/from the web. Since this is such a major function of Dreamweaver MX 2004, we will discuss the Files window in the “Publishing” section.
