This video deals with defin­ing a web­site in Dreamweaver.  When defin­ing web­sites, as opposed to cre­at­ing a doc­u­ment in a word­proces­sor, you deal with mul­ti­ple files that come together to define what you see on the web page.  These files include the html (offi­cially it’s been pop­u­lar to use a vari­ent of HTML known as XHTML 1.1 — exten­si­ble HTML), images, style sheets (CSS — Cascading Style Sheets) that define the look and feel of the site, javascript for inter­act­ing with the user and for browser based effects.  In addi­tion, many web­sites have code that runs on the server.

For this rea­son, it is impor­tant to define a site with a par­tic­u­lar structure.
