We gave four web professionals a design brief: we asked them each to plan, design, and implement a specific type of web site, then write up all their design and development considerations - how to be visually appealing while usable and accessible, how to wireframe the sites, and how to develop them with usability and accessibility in mind. The web sites are: A corporate site (designed using CSS and templates on a Mac) A news portal (made using PHP on a PC) An entertainment site (a visually appealing fan site for the band U2, made using a Mac) A company intranet site (made using ASP on a PC)
The authors also take you through the complete code for each site (including server-side functionality, CSS, and Dreamweaver templates), which is available for download from glasshaus. Using this book, you can learn from their work, and multiply your own Dreamweaver knowledge.
