After you create a Web site, you can use the Files panel to quickly and
easily manage individual Web pages, files and folders. If a file or folder
name is not exactly what you want, you can quickly rename it. You can
create and name a new folder and move pages to a different location. If
you no longer need or want a file or folder, you can remove it. In addi-
tion, you can move files and folders around in the same way you can in
Windows Explorer (Win) or Finder (Mac). If you no longer need a file,
you can quickly delete it.

A file type specifies the file format (for example, a Web page .htm or
.html) as well as the program and version in which the file was created
(for example, Dreamweaver). You might want to change the type if
you’re creating a custom template or sharing files with someone who
needs them for use in another program. You can use the Save As dialog
box to change the file type for a page. The Save As Type list arrow dis-
plays a list of the available formats for the program or current
