About adding dynamic content

After you define one or more sources of dynamic content, you can use the sources to add dynamic content on the
page. Content sources can include a column in a recordset, a value submitted by an HTML form, the value contained
in a server object, or other data.

In Dreamweaver, you can place dynamic content almost anywhere in a web page or its HTML source code. You can
place dynamic content at the insertion point, replace a text string, or insert it as an HTML attribute. For example,
dynamic content can define the src attribute of an image, or the value attribute of a form field.

You can add dynamic content to a page by selecting a content source in the Bindings panel. Dreamweaver inserts a
server-side script in the page’s code instructing the server to transfer the data from the content source to the page’s
HTML code when the page is requested by a browser.
