Book Description


When it comes to mastering Adobe GoLive, Adobe GoLive 6.0 Classroom in a Book puts you in a class of your own. This hands-on workbook leads you through a series of lessons that teach you everything you need to know to quickly get to work with the latest version of GoLive, but you learn on your own time, at your own pace. And here's something else that sets it apart from the other GoLive books out there: Adobe's Classroom in a Book is the only one that gives you the official training course created by the company's own team and tested in its classrooms and labs.

Adobe GoLive 6.0 Classroom in a Book makes it easy to learn what you want to know when you need to know it. The Adobe Creative Team breaks down GoLive and Web publishing into clear, step-by-step lessons that cover key concepts such as toolbars, palettes, layout design, the collaborative Adobe Web WorkGroup Server, site architecture, dynamic content creation, wireless-device authoring, Cascading Style Sheets, image maps, and more. You'll never feel overwhelmed by the information. At the end of each chapter, review questions wrap up and reinforce what you've learned, and the accompanying CD-ROM gives you customized files and images designed for use in conjunction with the book's hands-on exercises.

Reader Reviews
This is my first venture into the CLIB series and my first venture into serious web designing tools. I needed help fast and I needed a self paced training that would keep me interested. This book comes through on both counts. What's more, it is doing it with style. The only thing missing from the classroom experience is interaction with the teacher. My background is hardware bashing, not code bashing or web development. I needed a tool to get a personal promotion site up and running. I looked at other tools like FrontPage, Macromedia's offering and even some HTML editors. I'd helped put some simple web pages together and realized I do not want to code pages. FrontPage was reasonably priced, but did not offer much in the way of flexibility. Macromedia was OK, but I was not at ease with their interface. I already own and use some Adobe products, so the interface seemed very familiar to me. This is not to say the interface is simple, and that's where the Class Room in a Book comes in. One suggestion: if you are a first time user of GoLive (GL), start with Lesson 2 or at least working part way through it. Lesson 2 provides an excellent introduction to the GL interface and structure. I found the supplied lesson materials matched the book perfectly, something I have not always found, and the exercises were not simple busy work, but true teaching exercises. I'm only part way through the book, but I feel I know enough that I've begun designing my own site. As I continue the lessons, I will be updating the site's design to incorporate what I'm learning. The next challenge will be learning LiveMotion from the CLIB for that application. I highly recommend GoLive 6.0 Classroom in a Book to all levels of users. You do not need an extensive hardware background to follow the book. You do need to be a fluid operator of your computer and you should have some understanding of what the Internet is to take advantage of the potential offered here. Comment | | (Report this)
