by Khristine Annwn Page


Book Description
Macromedia Dreamweaver MX: Training from the Source leads you through a series of 17 project-based lessons in which you learn how to create and maintain Web sites using Macromedia's popular Web design software. The book's step-by-step exercises use the "Lights of the Coast" project Web site to introduce you to Dreamweaver's powerful tools and the best ways to use them. By recreating the sample Web site through the lessons, you'll gather the skills you need to develop sites, working in both visual and code editing environments, that are accessible to a wide audience. The lessons in this easy-to-follow guide provide 18-20 hours of tutorials, which start with the basics of creating a Web page and progressively add in more complex tasks such as working with text, graphics, and tables. You don't need any prior Dreamweaver experience to grasp these easy-to-follow lessons, which, while based on a sample project, provide you with all of the techniques and confidence to build your own full-featured Web sites.

Macromedia Dreamweaver MX: Training from the Source

FROM OUR EDITORS

The Barnes & Noble Review
Upgrading from an older version of Dreamweaver? Moving from FrontPage or GoLive or Notepad? New to web design altogether? To learn Dreamweaver MX quickly and well, get Macromedia Dreamweaver MX: Training From the Source. Straight from Macromedia, this superbly crafted course teaches Dreamweaver MX through the construction of a complete, realistic web site.

OK, you won￯﾿ᄑt learn ASP or ColdFusion coding here (though Khristine Annwn Page does introduce Dreamweaver￯﾿ᄑs coding tools). But just about everything else is in here. Formatting text. Cleaning up sloppy HTML in Word files. Controlling the appearance of your graphics and layouts. Managing links. Creating rollovers. Incorporating Flash objects. Tweaking raw HTML.

Plus loads of techniques for getting more done in less time. HTML styles that let you format text more quickly and consistently. Library items that make it a snap to reuse content elements. Templates that control your entire site￯﾿ᄑs look and feel. Find and Replace for making zillions of site changes in one swell foop.

It￯﾿ᄑs all completely hands-on, with all source files on CD-ROM, and the finished site on the Web for your perusal. And it￯﾿ᄑll get you ready to handle major Dreamweaver projects in next to no time. Bill Camarda
