Question: What is a Dreamweaver Behavior?
Answer:
Dreamweaver behaviors are a way to add scripting events to the elements on your Web page. Dreamweaver writes the JavaScript and the event attribute for you. You can create behaviors to:
- check for a specific browswer version
- open a new browser window
- play a sound
- write a popup message
- change text elements
- call a custom JavaScript script
- and so much more
When you insert a behavior on an element on your Web page, Dreamweaver will place a script in the <head> and place the appropriate browser event attribute in your HTML tag.
Dreamweaver comes with 27 built-in behaviors and you can install more through Dreamweaver extensions.
