Product Overview

Product Overview

Adobe® Dreamweaver® is the industry-standard web development tool. The beauty of the program is it lets you create full-featured websites without the need to first learn how to code using HTML and other web programming languages. The easiest and fastest way to start using Dreamweaver’s powerful features is to let two experts – Adam Stokoe and Stuart Hogton – walk you through them one by one. Instead of wasting time on features you may not use, Adam clearly explains everything in CS3 from the essential basics of web design to the most useful advanced tools.

Dreamweaver® can appear complex for newcomers to the software, but this DVD’s easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach makes building websites a breeze. Start with the basics such as arranging windows, naming files and adding email links, and then explore the more advanced and technical skills as adding flash animations, embedding mp3 files and validating code. By the end of this DVD, you’ll be able to create your own website from start to finish.

Stuart details all the latest CS4 enhancements, including Adobe® AIR™ authoring support, the new "Related Files and Code Navigator" tool and Subversion integration. This DVD puts you in control of what you learn and how fast you progress. You can pause, fast forward, rewind and skip chapters, and practical exercises at the end let you practise your new skills by building a complete working website. Learn from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace. Order today and build your first website tomorrow, or update your existing Dreamweaver® skills.
