making a web page in cs3?

Hi all i use to be able to make a simple web page with little rollovers and linking in PS and imageready, but now i got cs3 and i don't know what to do! I hear that now you have to start with PS->FW->FL->DW. Can anyone be kind enough to walk me through the entire thing with some details please.

Shall I teach you physics with some details while I'm at it? Just to be nice, I'll even give you a detailed history of foreign immigration into Japan, and the nuances of how the civilization has adapted to deal with the outsiders. I'll make sure to do it with the details.

Well what i wanted is more like, make the desing in PS and slice the layout and import that into imageready and do page linking (but in cs3 u do somthing else) and add falsh animation on parts and uplod in DW. I know a little but i just don't know how without imageready, no need to be an asshole!

Everyone probably has their own method, but I personally do up a design in photoshop, then slice the sections that can't be reproduced with xhtml, and save them. From there I use a text editor (dreamweaver in your case) to code the website, using the images from photoshop, using placeholders for the flash. I add the flash last.

That's not how professionals make websites. Why not learn the right way?

what is the professional way? A few people told me that making a web site is easy with adobe, its mostly design and no coding. Is that right?

not for a professional site. read pgo's thread.

i find dreamweaver a very good tool for learning though. to an extent i still use the shabby design view - but the code view is where you want to be. as a code editor dreamweaver is as good as any imo.
