Synopsis

Web designers, web producers, and webmasters rely on one program above all others to design, build, and manage professional websites: Adobe Dreamweaver. It provides the tools you need to create everything from simple HTML pages to database-driven PHP pages. But what makes Dreamweaver so versatile is also what makes it difficult to learn.

You'll hone your skills with the help of hands-on, guided tutorials throughout the book. * Learn how to control the appearance of your web pages with CSS, from basic to advanced techniques * Design dynamic, database-driven websites, from blogs to product catalogs, and from shopping carts to newsletter signup forms * Add interactivity to your website with ready-to-use JavaScript programs from Adobe's Spry Framework * Effortlessly control the many helper files that power your website and manage thousands of pages * Examine web page components and Dreamweaver's capabilities with the book's "live examples"
