websites issues and referral to additional list?

[Evelyn Lee Barney <evbarney -at- comcast -dot- net>]

It's interesting how life evolves. It seems my career is taking me into 
ever more web development, primarily of the "interactive for education" 
type.

Like many web-dev types, most of my hands on skill is self taught.  I 
use Dreamweaver CS3 for the most part, with some plain text editing.

Here are some client complaints about the sight I'm working on now:

1) There is an accordion-style menu.  I used what Adobe calls "spry 
assets" to make it, and spry creates javascript - which I'm not fluent 
in. If you are not familiar with accordion-style menus,  Each tab 
scrolls (accordions)  open to reveal a text pane that holds the links 
for the tab topic. On the page in question, when a viewer opens a tab 
that is not the top tab - and navigates to a page under that tab, the 
new page shows the top tab open (there must be some default setting 
here) not the tab related to the topic.

2) They say: --Double clicking, or a subsequent later click, on a link 
that opens a separate new window, unexpectedly opens TWO identical 
windows.  Second and subsequent clicks on any link should open the 
window that's already open, not a new window. 

I used the "_blank" setting for this, is there a better one?

/*Last*/ - does anyone know of a listserv, forum,.or other interactive 
resource that could be helpful to me - specifically for web 
development?  I'd like it to have people on it who are using 
Dreamweaver, though not exclusively.

Thanks!
