you could easily use javascript to change font sizes, background colours. not sure how you go about doing it using just html/css though

What do you mean? it should be pretty easy to use CSS with dreamweaver, go get dreamweaver if u dont have it already.

You'll probably do the whole site with 0 coding knowledge on dreamweaver.

making a site is easy (personally id just use a text file, i find dreamweaver horrible) but hes asking how you make interchangable background colour and font sizes through html code (not just setting it). the only way i know of is by javascript.

So True.

Easiest software to use. Simply split the code and the preview windows and it's as if you're typing it in a notepad, whilst viewing exactly what you're doing.

i've not used it in years, but when i last used it it would never render the page 100% accurate, there was always something messed up. so i just use notepad and flick back and forth to the browser :)

Thanks for the replys, i have now infact installed dream weaver which im trying to learn the layout of the progam, seems a little confusing at start, still not managed to find anything in dreamweaver relating to a on site button where you can select your own desired font and background color. any advice on this would be helpfull currently looking for java scripts to try impliment.

dreamweaver won't make things for you, its simply an interface for writing code (like a text file)

celsius provided the link you need to implement javascript in to your website.
