When you insert an image into a Dreamweaver document, Dreamweaver automatically generates a reference to the image file in the HTML source code. To ensure that this reference is correct, the image file must be in the current site. If it is not in the current site, Dreamweaver asks whether you want to copy the file into the site.
You can also insert images dynamically. Dynamic images are those images that change often. For example, advertising banner rotation systems need to randomly select a single banner from a list of potential banners, and then dynamically display the selected banners image when a page is requested. For more information, see Making images dynamic.
If you are working in an unsaved document, Dreamweaver generates a file:// reference to the image file. When you save the document anywhere in the site, Dreamweaver converts the reference to a document-relative path.
The Image Tag Accessibility Attributes dialog box appears if you have activated the dialog box in Preferences (see Optimizing the workspace for accessible page design).

You can enter information in one or both text boxes depending on your needs. |
For more information see Setting the Image Tag Accessibility Attributes dialog box options.
The image appears in your document.
NOTE |
|
If you click Cancel, the image appears in the document, but Dreamweaver does not associate accessibility tags or attributes with it. |
For more information, see Setting image properties.
To edit accessibility attributes for the image, see Editing accessibility attributes for an image.
If you inserted accessibility attributes for an image (see Inserting an image), you can edit those values in the HTML code.
