Accessing Split Code view
Why should coders be denied the ability to work in two windows at the same time? Split Code view enables you to work in two different documents or two different sections of the same document at once. Take your pick.
If necessary, switch to Code view.
Choose View > Split > Code-Code.
The document displays two Code view windows, both focusing on myfirstpage.html.
Insert the cursor in the top window and scroll down to the <footer> element.
Split Code view enables you to view and edit two different sections of the same file.
Insert the cursor in the bottom window and scroll to the <header> element.
You can also view and edit the contents of any related file.
In the Related Files interface, select favorite-styles.css.
The window loads the style sheet into one of the windows. You can work in either window and save your changes in real time. Dreamweaver displays an asterisk (*) on any filename in the interface that has been changed but not saved. If you select File > Save or press Ctrl+S/Cmd+S, Dreamweaver saves the changes in the document where your cursor is inserted. Since Dreamweaver can make changes to documents even when they are not open, this feature allows you to edit and update even the files that are closed but linked to your webpage.
