5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for beginner and intermediate users, 25 Jul 2003
By A Customer
This is an excellent book for the newcomer to Dreamweaver, and comes with a 30-day evaluation copy of Dreamweaver MX for Windows or Macintosh. The 17 lessons, each taking an hour (or sometimes two), are well thought out and easy to follow. The step-by-step guidance is complete (you're never left wondering what to do next or why it isn't working), without being patronizing. Unlike many books, the word-count isn't inflated by repeating details (and screen-shots!) ad nauseam - here you're told how to do something once or maybe twice, and then it's assumed you to know how to do it; though there are references back to the details if needed. Unusually for this sort of book, I didn't come across any errors, and all of the exercises actually work! At the end of each lesson there's an "on your own" exercise, where you can deconstruct, analyze and re-create commercially produced web pages, to illustrate and consolidate what you've just learnt in the lesson.

The book does not claim to be comprehensive in its coverage of the functionality of Dreamweaver MX. What the book's Introduction actually says is: "Because it is geared toward beginner and intermediate users who may have little or no previous experience with Dreamweaver, coverage of advanced application building and dynamic web site creation with the use of databases ... is outside the scope of this book", and it goes on to explain why they are not included. As a beginner myself, by the end of the course I felt I had a good understanding of the basic capabilities of the Dreamweaver package, though clearly there is more to it. The emphasis is usually on the Design view, rather than the HTML behind it, but one can always switch to Code view to see what HTML has been generated.

I really enjoyed working through this book - something I can rarely say about computer manuals. The author writes well, obviously knows the application inside out, has taken the trouble to consider the needs of beginners, and has produced a very effective learning package.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wheres the Data?, 19 Sep 2002
Oveerall this was a nice and clear book but as it had NOTHING about databases (covered in the introduction but not on Amazon's description) it was of little use to me. The tutorials provided with Dreamweaver cover most of this stuff.

Well written and clear but only covers a small portion of Dreamweaver MX's abilities.
