View live data in Design view

1. Make sure Dreamweaver is properly configured to display live data.

   For more information, see Requirements for displaying live data.

2. Select View > Live Data.

   The page appears in Design view complete with dynamic content.

   When Live Data is enabled in Design view, you can do the following:

   • Adjust the page’s layout using the page-design tools

   • Add, edit, or delete dynamic content

   • Add, edit, or delete server behaviors

     Note: Links don’t work in Design view. To test your links, use the Preview In Browser feature.

     When you make a change to the page that affects dynamic content, you can refresh the page by clicking the Refresh button (the circle-arrow icon). Dreamweaver can also refresh the page for you automatically.

     The following example shows a dynamic page with Live Data disabled:

     The following example shows the same page with Live Data turned on:
