Promotion: link popularity: reciprocal links: link exchange

There are very strong websites that use a title that describes the site rather than the domain name, again, using strong key words. Others have opted to use a title that starts with a number or letter "A" so that on another website - their text link will appear early in the page.Website Description - Use Overture's Keyword Selector Tool to refine your text for your website description. The more thought and planning you put into your title and description, the more powerful your link exchange will have on search engines.Categorizing your own text link - To save time and energy, think about what categories your text link would work on (i.e. work at home recourses, parenting, home decor, time management - the theme of your website) because some sites will want you choose the category that your website will fit in!Once you have designed your own link description, you are ready to set up your own link exchange program for your website.

As you will be asking other website owners to put your link information on their "links" or "resource" page, you need to set up your own page for you to place their link exchange information.

Web design and development: graphics: web: templates

This article describes how Dreamweaver implements templates. Technically, to use , you don't need to know any of the information given in this article; but it is handy to know something about what's going on under the hood in case you need to troubleshoot a Dreamweaver template based document.

Templates are a tool that is used in many computer applications including Microsoft Word, AutoCAD, and other office automation and design products. Templates are useful when you have a group of documents that share many similar design features. You implement the common features one time in the template, and then just customize the template with the individual features of each document.

Templates are Used Only at Design Time

It is important to understand that Dreamweaver templates are totally a design time construct. Only two things separate a Dreamweaver template from any other HTML document:

1. Dreamweaver template documents have a ".dwt" extension.

2. Dreamweaver templates contain specially defined HTML comments that define the editable and non editable area of the template.

When you create an "instance" document that is based on a Dreamweaver template and store it on a web server, the web server is completely unaware that the document was based on a template. It treats the document the same as any other HTML document, and ignores the template comments in the document the same as it would ignore any other comments in an HTML document.

Similarly, a web browser would be completely unaware that a document was based on a Dreamweaver template, and would also ignore the template comments the same as it would ignore any other comments in an HTML document.

Tag Syntax

Dreamweaver has two sets of tags:

* Template Tags are used in template files (files that have suffix .dwt).

* Instance Tags are used in the "instance" documents you create that are based on a template file (files that typically have a suffix .htm or .html).

Dreamweaver defines about thirty different template tags, but all of them have the following syntax:

where TEMPLATE_TAG_NAME and the parameters are replaced with an actual template tag name and actual parameter names. For example:

In the above example, the template tag is a TemplateBeginEditable tag named "Region 1".

The syntax of instance tags is quite similar:

Tag Pairs

Many template tags are paired, having an opening and a closing tag. For example, the "TemplateBeginEditable" tag described above always starts an editable region that is ended with a "TemplateEndEditable". The two tags come as a pair, defined as follows:

-- HTML Code goes here --- How Dreamweaver uses Template Tags

One of the simplest and most important things that Dreamweaver does with Template/Instance tags is to define what regions of an instance document (document created based on a template document) can be edited. BUT BEWARE . . . If you use Dreamweaver to open a template based document in CODE VIEW, you can edit any part of the document in any way you please -- but this is generally not a good thing to do. In Dreamweaver document design view, Dreamweaver respects the instance tags that are included in a document; for example, it will only allow you to edit areas of the document that begin with an "InstanceBeginEditable" (or similar type) tag.

When you have finished editing your web page, the Dreamweaver Instance Tags will remain in it, but as previously stated, these tags are ignored by your Web Server and your Browser.

Finally, if you update a template in Dreamweaver, all of the documents based on the template will be updated too.

Conclusion

Dreamweaver templates work by using specially defined HTML comment tags to mark regions of Dreamweaver template documents and instance documents. You should recognize Dreamweaver template and instance tags, and understand what they do, but you should only edit them in Dreamweaver Design View, not in Code View.

The very first coin operated vending machine was introduced in the 1880's in London England and would dispense postcards. In 1888, the very first machine of this kind was introduced to the United States by Thomas Adam Gum Company. They were installed on the subway platform in New York City and contained Tutti Fruiti gum. The gumball machines were introduced in 1907. In the early 1920's we had machines that would dispense soda in a cup.

The American inventor, William Rowe had invented the very first machine that would dispense cigarettes. Cigarette vending machines have now been banned in thebut still available in other countries although, they will probably be banned all over the world because health campaigners are afraid kids are buying them and getting addicted. 

The vending machine is found all over now, from a street corner to amusement parks. Antares, Vendco and Seaga are 3 of the most popular of this kind of machinery. To make them more attractive to children they invented bubble gum machines with bright gum in many sizes. The spiral gum machine has become very popular with children because they get to see their piece of gum go down a spiral shoot before getting to the bottom.

Next we have the machines that you can win a prize, A toy crane will go down and pick up a small prize such as a stuffed animal. If you land the crane in just the right place, the claws will pick it up and dispense through a big hole. Vending machines have evolved into a billion dollar industry. Canned drinks are the top seller of these machines followed by the snack machine.

Companies will pay to put their machines in many areas such as factory's, schools, colleges, and even hospitals. It is up to the owner of the business to decide just how much they want to charge for the product in these machines. Amusement parks really make some big money on these because they usually charge double and more for the same items you will see in the machines in front of a gas station. These type of franchises are very profitable.
