About developing an XHTML-Basic site

As you develop your XHTML-Basic pages, work in a site project file to get all the benefits of working in GoLive. The site project file manages links and site assets, lets you use site diagramming to design the structure of your site, and save pages as templates and stationery to increase your consistency and work efficiently. Follow these basic steps and guidelines to develop your site.

Set up the environment and pages.

You'll need to configure the Objects palette so that you can drag only valid XHTML-Basic elements to your page. You'll need to set the page to the XHTML-Basic doctype and choose a browser preview setting. When you set the doctype, only text formatting options that are valid in XHTML-Basic are available.

Add content

You can add text, links, form elements, and images just like any other GoLive page. However, not all HTML elements are supported, so they don't appear in the Objects palette when it's configured for XHTML-Basic.

The Adobe GoLive 6 CD (Windows only) includes an emulator so that you can check how your XHTML-Basic pages will look on various Nokia phones. You can also use the Syntax checker to see if your page use valid XHTML-Basic code. (See Checking syntax.
