Configuration Files Paths and Dreamweaver Extensibility API Calls
By: Danilo Celic on Tuesday, August 17, 2004
Reader Level: 
Many of the Dreamweaver extensibility API functions are configuration folder path agnostic. That is, regardless of which folder a file resides in, the application install folder, the user's folder, or the All Users/root folder, the API function will translate the passed in file path and grab the file that is supposed to be used (user's, then All Users/root, then install folder). DWfile methods copy and write, dw.getDocumentDOM() and dw.browseDocument() are examples of such path agnostic functions.
However, some of Dreamweaver's API calls take file paths literally. Read on to find out how to get Dreamweaver to work with you when you need to use an exact path for some of its API calls.
