Most websites created in Asian languages use the Roman
alphabet (ABC)
for file and folder names. However, modern browsers are now
capable of
handling URLs in Chinese characters and other scripts. As
long as your
computer supports Chinese, so does Dreamweaver (unless you're
using an
old version). If I recall correctly, all versions since
Dreamweaver 8
support Asian and other scripts.
