Extensions are code snippets that we can install into Dreamweaver. They automate the writing of specific code or perhaps even install a complete design layout, as in the case of the CMX JumpStarts. Whatever the extension has been designed to do, you can be sure it is going to be a huge time saver.

In this occasional series I will be covering extensions that I have found to be particularly useful in saving both time and money by automating tasks that I perform on a regular basis. The TFM Progress Bar isn't an extension that I use a great deal, but it does provide great functionality in specific circumstances. In short the TFM Progress Bar provides a visual indication to your users while they upload a file, the bigger the file size the more important this extension becomes.
