i'm still learning dreamweaver and as a result i gotta couple of questions..
q1 - can you link to an area on another page.. I know you can use anchors but from what i understand, you can link to those if they are on the same page you are currently viewing..
q2 - i want to have a text box that reads (preferably formated) text in from a text file or windows document... is this possible
thanks in advance

I can answer Q1: Yes you can, just put the bookmark link directly after the link to the new page - I think this is correct.
<a href=http://www.yoursite.com/subfolder/page.html#bookmark>link to given section of page</a>
As to Q2, I think you'll need javascript or php to be able to do this and I'm not knowledgable enough to advise though google did turn up some interesting results.

It's very possible. The only problem is how far you want to go with regards to data sanatising and the like. If it's for your own personal use and is behind a good password and login schema, then maybe 10-40 lines of code depending on what you want to do with it (you say you want it formatted).
If you are opening it to the public, then there would need to be a lot of things to check prior to allowing it to sit on your server, and in which case I would nip over to somewhere like Hot Scripts and looking for something pre-built and tested there.
If it's only for yourself, I'd be happy to give pointers (usually I'd write you up the code, but I'm swamped with work at the moment).
Everything I'm referring to is using PHP by the way (I don't like JavaScript since all it takes is someone to have it turned off and boom).

thanks for the offer.. I will take a look at hotscripts.. Its not that important that i would need to go to the depth of writing code.. It is more of a nice to have...

XML is very simple and can be done via a text editor the best o fit is that XML can contain CCS as well and it can be searched as in effect its a database
