I need some help. I started using my Dreamweaver yesterday, everything works great; however, when I try to run a project that I did earlier in the week, it says I need the Netscape/Firefox plugin. Where do I go to install it? Please and thank you!

Flash is dead.  Don't use Flash for anything web related.  Most people cannot view Flash media anymore.  

Incidentally, you need a valid document type declaration on the 1st line of your code.  I suggest you review HTML5 -- the current web standard -- even though your legacy version of DW does not know about it.   HTML5 Introduction

You may replace Flash with HTML5 Video or CSS animations.

Netscape plugin?!

OMG.  Netscape ended in 2006.

What are you doing that requires a plugin for an obsolete browser that nobody owns or uses anymore?

I think I remember Dw8 and below including a fix for netscape browsers, (Firefox was derived from the Netscape 6 browser that was 'killed off').
