We have another solution, firt open the shopping cart in your browser and view source code from it and then paste it in Dreamweaver editor.

In Firefox : View > Page Source.
Copy the source and paste in Dreamweaver.

Note: make sure to change the paths and save in you folder. that's it.

The template should be (X)HTML & CSS compliant. There are lot of HTML templates on the Internet, just search them by using uncle Google. Templates in Joomla is filed under a directory named templates. Ensure the HTML file, images and CSS file are inside one single directory created under templates folder. For example, take a look at the Joomla template structure below:

Joomla Template Directory Structure
Joomla will search index.php inside the template directory. So, rename the index.html file to index.php.
Step 2
Replace the HTML code before the body tag of your HTML file with this code.

Don’t forget to enlist all your files used in your newly made template inside files tag. If you missed, the files won’t be copied to Joomla template directory during installation process. positions tag is used to declare the position name used in your template.
Step 5
Package it. You may create a thumbnail of your template before packing it. It should have 206px width and 150px height . and finally compress your template to a zip file and your template are ready to go. Don’t forget to test it before sharing it to the Internet in case you feel like it.

1. Read a license - maybe you are not permitted to use this theme for something else
2. Set up default Joomla installation up and running

so if i do that.. will i get the exact design?

take a look at this template - http://livedemo00.template-help.com/joomla_33235/

if i copy the copy/paste source code with all CSS/JS files,
will i get the same design like that? with all the similar header, menu effects and body features?

sorry i am a newbie and i need your advice.

thank you]]> 10/02/11, 275 31 2011 2011:%i:1317576689 17:31:29 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p4395 Jadian Technologies said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5852
If just static, you could View Source on the rendered page, copy it all, paste it into a new file and just delete all the Joomla-specific code. You'd still have to check that the layout remains intact, and you may have to alter the CSS at bit.]]> 11/29/11, 333 29 2011 2011:%i:1322540960 04:29:20 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5852 Peter Freeman said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5867 12/06/11, 340 15 2011 2011:%i:1323155718 07:15:18 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5867 James John said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5870 12/07/11, 341 45 2011 2011:%i:1323243917 07:45:17 http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p5870 Racks Jackson said: http://www.wpdfd.com/forums/wpdfd/web_design_software/how_do_i_convert_a_joomla_template_to_basic_htmlcss_template/#p8482 ppt templates.
