Dreamweaver MX 2004 Savvy
By Christian Crumlish and Lucinda Dykes, Sybex
REVIEW
You will spend days/weeks absorbing the abundance of information Dreamweaver MX
2004 Savvy contains, but that’s what one buys a book of this nature for.
Very good book, packed with information and guidance for one to learn Dreamweaver.
(the book includes a CD by Christian Crumlish and Lucinda Dykes).
Be prepared to spend time with this book if you are serious about learning Dreamweaver. You can read the book and complete the tutorials as you go along (recommended).
The CD that comes with Dreamweaver MX 20004 Savvy contains all the files to complete the tutorials. A bonus graphics chapter on the CD covers image optimization and slicing on Fireworks, Photoshop and Illustrator, an important chapter to help you produce a web site that is efficient. The CD also contains browsers, Internet Explorer, Netscape, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera, again necessary to test your web pages in different browsers. Demo’s of Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Flash are included on CD.
A bonus chapter on PDF file and extensions and more. After you have finished reading the book and completed the tutorials, what a great book to refer to when one gets stuck, because believe me, you will get stuck. Very good book, heavy going at times, particularly for the raw beginner, the tutorials will get the beginner up and ready in no time. For the advanced user this book goes deeper into Dreamweaver, there are sidebars all through - out the book that gives additional and interesting detailed information. This book is a must, heavy book to read, but it’s full of good information.
The book sells for $44.99 in the US.
