Amazon.co.uk Review
Sometimes the book falls into the trap of letting FrontPage's user interface dictate its structure, but it's quick to reveal normally obscure yet useful information. How to use e-mail to carry a Web form's contents, using the contents of one of the form's fields as the e-mail message's subject line, is one example of this. It also tends--unlike many similar books--to suggest the best way to do something, rather than merely listing all the possibilities. It's a helpful approach. --David Wall, Amazon.com
