5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for beginners, March 28, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreamweaver 4/Fireworks 4 Visual JumpStart (Paperback)

I am not a Fireworks user, but I feel that this book is excellent on its Dreamweaver merits alone.

I am an instructor at a small school that offers classes in Dreamweaver. This is one of the best beginner-level resources I have seen to date. It offers a complete rundown of the basic Dreamweaver functionality and serves as a springboard for users to graduate to more of the intermediate to advanced features.

This will be my textbook for Intro to Dreamweaver.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Introduction to Dreamweaver & Fireworks, March 20, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreamweaver 4/Fireworks 4 Visual JumpStart (Paperback)

I was a complete inexperienced Dreamweaver/Fireworks user when I picked this book up. I was impressed by the easy step-by-step approach to the material which didn't assume too much of the reader. I was also impressed that the book's content didn't get out of control...it was consciously designed for the real beginner.

The book is well written, and I highly recomend it to anyone who wants to get a good solid start with Dreamweaver & Fireworks.

The only drawback was that he book didn't continue into some of the more advanced topics which Dreamweaver is capable of.

I used Dreamwevare back @ v2, but I hadn't used it since. So, in order to do some remedial work, I picked up this book. I was pleasantly suprised by the fact that it was extremely well written and very complete. Despite the fact that it is really only an introduction, I leaned am amazing amount about Dreamweaver and Firewqorks. This book is solid. I recommend it not to just beginners, but also to those with more experience with Dreamwevaer & Fireworks.

This is definitely a must buy!
