This review is from: Dreamweaver CS3 Essential Training (DVD-ROM)

A fantastic way of learning the program and since its on DVD its an excellent medium to review whenever it is necessary. The instructor does an excellent job in presenting the information regardless of whether the viewer is looking at the DVD for the first time or an experienced user. There are lessons that are provided that are also excellent. The [...] series is excellent and well worth the money.
