The Files panel

You use the Files panel to view and manage the files in your Dreamweaver 

site. 

When you view sites, files, or folders in the Files panel, you can change the 

size of the viewing area, as well as expand or collapse the Files panel. When 

the Files panel is collapsed it displays the contents of the local site, the 

remote site, or the testing server as a list of files. When expanded, it 

displays the local site and either the remote site or testing server. The Files 

panel can also display a visual site map of the local site.

For Dreamweaver sites, you can also customize the Files panel by changing 

the view either your local or remote site that appears by default in the 

collapsed panel.

For more information about using the Files panel to manage your site, see 

Chapter 4,  Managing Your Files  in Using Dreamweaver.
