What is the best way to acheiving windows that popup when the user clicks on a link. That is fairly easy in Dreamweaver and perhaps doesn't put loads of script at the top of your page.
I have recently switched from Golive to Dreamweaver.
In Golive you could create windows that popped up when you clicked by using the Golive user interface that created a load of code that did this for you.
This was okay before a became a SEO. Now I worry about having lots of scripting at the top of the page before the content because of spidering.
Can Search Engine Spiders follow these kind of links?
At the moment I'm using Golive and Dreamweaver templates together its a pain to keep things working.
You'll be able to see how much code there is - never affected a page as far as I can see.
Search engines don't show pages only linked to via these links (whether they spider them is another debate...).
If you alter a behaviour after doing this Dreamweaver tends to replace the code in your <HEAD> section, so best to wait until you're all done.
