If the issue really is a dreamweaver template, to work with them you
need to open dreamweaver, create a dreamweaver site, and edit the
template in the templates folder. That should change every page on the
site. Dreamweaver has a pretty good tutorial under Help that addresses
creating sites and templates.
If you mean she changed the template file in another program, or changed
it in dreamweaver without creating a site, then that's the problem. The
dreamweaver program is what goes through and adjusts all of the HTML to
the template. If you work outside of a dreamweaver site on a template,
it's a dud.
If you mean she changed an actual site HTML page and nothing happened...
it sounds like some other issue.
