    You should use what is called a 'definition list' as it makes the most sense for a glossary. Read the official Macromedia documentation for creating lists in Dreamweaver: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/dreamweaver/8/using/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=14_tex24.htm

    You need to follow the steps and select 'Definition List' from the menu at the appropriate point.

    Hi,

    I don't think that there is a way of doing this automatically - I think you would need to just create a page with all your terms listed on it, and link to that page from others on your site.

    You could perhaps use a bit of JavaScript to automatically underline key words on the site that users can hover over to see a description - although I think this would take you longer than just making a glossary page. Also, a lot of people run their browser with JavaScript disabled, so a JavaScript solution wouldn't work for them.

    Good luck,
    Chris.
