I basically just jumped into Dreamweaver 4 with no prior experience aside from a basic HTML program. I needed a book that I'd be able to understand and have enough visual reference so I know exactly what I was supposed to be clicking on. Originally, I had bought "Teach Yourself Visually: Dreamweaver 4 and Flash 5". I was extremely dissappointed in what it offered, so I returned it for "Complete Reference: Dreamweaver 4". It completely made up for the hassle of the first book return. It's easy to understand and easy to navigate through. I even found something specific by looking in the Table of Contents instead of the index. It also contains just enough pictures to be helpful instead of being an annoyance. I highly recommend this book, even if you're just beginning to learn Dreamweaver 4.
