Creating a template using fluid grid layout
I know it's not possible to create a template using fluid grid layout in the CS6 version of Dreamweaver that I have, but I'm wondering if it's possible in later versions or on the cloud?

Thanks again Ben!

I designed it myself using Dreamweaver CS6 and fireworks, after taking classes at the community college. I'm not a web designer, and I understand very little about code. This is why I would prefer to continue using Dreamweaver to adapt my existing website to different devices. You mentioned in your previous answer that a pitfall of using fluid grids in Dreamweaver was that it was unstable. I'm not really sure what you mean by that
I was hoping to get an example that already uses FGL so that I could extract the info for a working template. However, the site that you have given me to look at, needs a complete redesign if you want to make it responsive.
For instance, what do you want the layout to look like in a mobile portrait view (narrow) right through to a large computer screen in landscape mode?
FGL is very finely tuned and must adhere to certain criteria. The moment that you make a change to the code (HTML and CSS) that is not to the liking of the framework, the whole page falls into disarray. I was most enthusiastic when Dreamweaver first introduced it but left it soon after realising that to use FGL is a nightmare.
You go on to say that you understand very little code. I hate being the bearer of bad news, but to use Dreamweaver, you must have a working knowledge of HTML and CSS.
If you want to continue using Dreamweaver, you are best off to
If that sounds too much for your liking, then have a look at using Muse instead.
Note: I have removed the 'Correct Answer' from my reply (thank you for that), because it does not contain the answer to your problem. I am hopeful that these last two posts (Nancy's and mine) will give you the info that you are looking for.
