Product Description
Product Description
FrontPage QuickSteps provides a brief overview combined with ready reference material and simplified tutorials, like a recipe book for computer users.
The layout is clear and readable and yet thoroughly contemporary in design. Tabs on the edges of the pages provide a handy reference to the action being discussed on that page.
The lengthwise layout of the book provides for a more open, visual display of the material and helps the book lie flat on the reader’s desk.

When You're Beginning
20 Nov 2005
Format:Paperback
I purchased the book to learn a little about FrontPage 2003. I wanted to publish a personal web site. This book is absolutely fantastic for what I wanted. No, it's not for the guru's, but if you want a book to step you through the basics and be useful as a reference, this is it. The pictures are well laid out and well marked. The sidebars are full of useful information.

Microsoft FrontPage 2003
I believe that beginners not experienced with using a computer could use this book. It includes step by step instructions on how to use Microsoft FrontPage. From clicking the start button to, to exiting out of the programs, to creating web pages, to publishing web pages, this book shows in great detail how to create a web page.
The first chapter in the book describes how to first get to Microsoft Front page such as showing what different icons mean and the different toolbars inside of Front page. It shows which you need to click on to get where you want too. It explains how to use a mouse and which side of the mouse to click in order to carry out certain tasks.
The second chapter of the book describes how to start creating a web page. It gives you information on planning a web site, what the content will be, how to keep it organized and what it will look like. It teaches how to add text and pictures to your web page.
The third chapter explains how to format a Web Page. Formatting a web page includes adding vibrant colors and text to your page instead of a plain boring text. You can choose themes and pictures to go across your web page as well.
The fourth chapter of this book explains how to work with graphics. Graphics is a term used to describe forms of visual enhancements that can be added to a web page. [...] It shows how to add clips, move and copy clips, and even delete clips. It explains how to resize, edit and crop pictures to get them the way you want them.
The fifth chapter explains how to set up navigation and publishing of a web sites. It explains how to insert a hyperlink and how to link them to web pages and files. It also explain how to link it to an email address. It explains how to manage a site and how Microsoft Front Page has the tools that check the quality of your site.
Chapter six in the book explains designing with tables and frames. It shows how to use tables for your page layouts. It explains 3 different ways you can create a table. It explains how to make a table from certain things such as a menu or toolbar. You can also add rows and columns to your table.
In chapter seven of the book, we learn how to use wizards and templates. Wizards ask you questions about what you want your web page to be about and uses a layout based on your answers. Templates define common areas of a web page that are set aside for content that will appear on each page of a web.
Chapter eight explains how to work with forms. Once again it asks questions as the wizard does and uses your answers to build a form. It explains how to build a form from scratch, review and edit it, then complete and use the form.
Chapter nine talks about using web components and shared borders. How to speed up and automate the production of your web page.
At last, chapter ten shows us how to use the HTML. The HTML controls to appearance of your webs by controlling the layout and look of the pages. It shows neat character styles that you can add to your HTML such as making something bold, big, small, underlined, etc. It shows you how to put a lot of stuff together, and its really helpful.
Overall, I think that this book is really good and descriptive and provides the reader with lots of step by step information to get through creating web pages. I think that anyone can use this book, experienced with computers, or not. I think it would be a little more helpful to people not experienced in using computers, but it could also help people that are, to help find things for which they are specifically looking.
