Reader ReviewsThis is a good second book to have in your Dreamweaver arsenal. I say second, because it assumes you already know a little about the program, though in the intro the author states that it's for the beginner, I don't believe that's so. If you're just starting I would recommend the Dreamweaver MX 2004 book by Garo Green, however there is a lot of stuff in this book you won't find in Mr. Green's. Once you get in the program, this book will be a handy tool to have on hand. I use it kind of like a reference book. If you've already mastered the basics of the program, than this is a book I'm sure you'll find useful. I know I do.
