Not too helpful |
|
Tricky for a beginner... too much entering given info without any application. I used this book for a class & really didn't learn how to do a web page on my own. All it taught me was how to enter CSS info into an already developed site. Very little of the info was transferable to designing a site on my own... pretty much just data entry. |

Not the most effective way to learn Dreamweaver |
|
My review is from my self-learning perspective versus using the book as a classroom text. Also, I have intermediate web development experience using Front Page. That said, I found this book to be a cumbersome and difficult learning aid, compared to video courses available. The book seemed to overly complicate using Dreamweaver, starting in Chapter 1 with a lengthy explanation of XHTML, which I found tedious and unnecessary. I found the vtc.com video course I took offered a much more practical approach to learning Dreamweaver than this book. The CD in the book is helpful but basically an adjunct to the book material. |

decent guidebook |
|
This instructional book was for a Dreamweaver class I took, so a required text. While this book was decent as far as tutorials go, it would not be my first choice. The Thomson Course Technology series (I believe by Botello) was much more thorough and had a better layout for students. |

Simple and easily readable |
I am a complete beginner in website design, and this book is a godsend because of its simplicity. Following the tutorials is really easy and very understandable, without heavy html words and codes that somebody like me wouldn't understand.
That said, i think this book is not only for beginners but covers all aspects of Dreamweaver. A colleague of mine who is an expert in website development has recommended it because she needs it to develop her skills even further. |

This book was a required text for my class...however, I would have bought it sooner if I had known how helpful it would be. Thanks! |
