Next to last paragraph in dark gray box

The box says that Ctrl-P will replay a command -- Ctrl-P prints. Ctrl-Y
replays the last history item, but it dosen't seem willing to replay

Instructions for creating a Web Photo Album produce the following error:

While executing onClick, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred:

At line 71 of the file "...CommandsCreate Web Photo album.js"
TypeError: dw.getDocumentDOM() has no properties

Macromedia has a tutorial that works at:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/programs/photoalbum/

There are two differences in Macromedia's instructions and those in the Missing
Manual text:

1. Make a site for the Album
2. Have a document open -- even though it is not used, it is required for the
command to work properly.

"One of the beauties of the Missing Manuals is that there is always something new to discover and the research is quite thorough...I kept finding snippets of information, in the way of Tips or Notes, that would give just that bit extra."
