You may find that you are treading on dangerous ground with regard to copyright. You cannot just copy other peoples IP.

BDW - presumably if she found a dreamweaver template online, it's either freely given or for sale. In either case, the licensing should be clear. I think this is an implementation question.

Yes, sorry for not clarifying, it's a free DW template that I got online.

Sorry, I picked you up wrong, my fault. 1. Yes, you would replace the header graphic with your own if the one provided is not suitable. 2. You would not create or replace your own sample text. If you do this then you are restricted to the pages provided with the template. If I were you I would modify the template to suit your needs then create the new pages you require from this. (Regarding copyright, be careful if you are using any of the images and graphics supplied with the template. Ensure that there is no copyright on the images or it may come back to bite you later. There are thousands of instances on the net where free template providers have supplied their wares with copyrighted images and users have been pursued for this when caught using them online.)

Thanks, just a couple more questions. I should just delete the boxes or graphics that I don't want or need, and replace sample text with one page of my own text. Then do I use the "apply template to this page" command for all my other pages? I have about 40 other pages so I want to do this in the quickest possible way. I'm wondering how this works if it's coming from another template. Or maybe I should just accept it on faith and not worry about how it works! I just need to make sure I am doing it right. My site is online right now and I really don't want to mess anything up.

You really need to be careful if you are trying to do it yourself and you are not sure of what you are doing. Go to DW help and search for using templates. It's all there.
