  2. In the browser, click the buttons you added to test the links, and then return to the index.htm file.
  3. Test the other features that you added.

    If you know HTML and JavaScript, you will recognize the code that Fireworks created for you. If you don't know HTML and JavaScript, you can appreciate that Fireworks gives you no compelling reason to learn either.

In this tutorial, you followed the production workflow for creating a web page with Fireworks. You learned how to open a document, import graphics into it, and slice the document. You also created a rollover, buttons, and a pop-up menu. Finally, you learned to optimize and export your completed document.
