Reader Reviews
Developing a web page? Find that text editors are too much coding? HomeSite, FrontPage and others just don't have the right set of application features. Want to be able to do CSS, JavaScripts, HTML, DHTML, tables, frames and forms? Can't afford the cost of formalized classroom training? You want to use DreamWeaver MX and learn how to use the application, then you have look no further. Having taught DreamWeaver classes over the past several months, this book is by far much better than any courseware I have used or seen. One thing I like about this is that fact that you control the pace of learning, whether you want to learn over the weekend or over the month, this book allows for complete user control. Fully illustrated, you start off with the basic page design and from there you will work with more advanced concepts as you progress. I really like that fact that the book is a continual process of learning and building. I also like the way the author has broken down the step by step process by adding notes in the exercises. One of the best features is that the pictures and diagrams are in color to allow you to see what the result will be without having to guess. Again this book exceeded any text I have used in class and has given me some new DHTML ideas for website development. The cd-rom included has all the files you need for each project or exercise in the book. Also included are DreamWeaver, Flash and Fireworks MX trial versions as well as a trial version of Top Style Pro. I had absolutely no trouble with the exercises and found no steps missing from them. Overall if you are looking to advanced your website or are beginning to build one with DreamWeaver, stop by the bookstore and grab a copy of this manual, well worth the price.
