Product Description

Macromedia Dreamweaver MX's rich feature set simplifies the process of creating web sites while producing stunning results. Dreamweaver MX includes built-in database support, previously available only with the UltraDev version of the software. However, creating dynamic, database-driven sites is altogether a different prospect than building static HTML pages. Database-driven sites are more complex and involve more software components, both during development and deployment. If you've been discouraged by the complexity of picking the right database model and creating an effective data-driven site, then Building Database-Driven Web Sites with Dreamweaver MX 2004 is the answer. Written for Dreamweaver developers and power users, this book guides you through the process of creating web pages with Dreamweaver MX that access a remote database, using ColdFusion, ASP, ASP .NET, JSP, or PHP--without a lot of programming. Building Database-Driven Web Sites with Dreamweaver MX 2004 focuses exclusively on the database-related features of Dreamweaver MX while paying careful attention to database-related topics peripheral to Dreamweaver. You'll learn about working with different databases and scripting languages, security issues, performance concerns, and site management. The book covers specific techniques, such as creating connections, server-side validation, controlling browser caching, user management, and maintaining state between multiple sessions and site visits. You'll find out how to control the visual presentation of dynamic data, and learn how to use Dreamweaver MX to alter attributes of page elements with CSS and DHTML. You'll also see how the built-in behaviors of Dreamweaver MX can be used best in a web application. Author Simon Allardice, a well-known speaker and trainer, applies his first-hand knowledge and polished teaching style to give you all the tools you'll need to create sharp, dynamic sites. Building Database-Driven Web Sites with Dreamweaver MX 2004 is an indispensable resource for developers creating database-driven sites. If you've wanted to add a database back end to your web sites but haven't known where to begin, this book will jump-start your productivity. It's the one book you'll need to create dynamic, flexible, scalable sites with Dreamweaver MX.
