If you need to learn how to use GoLive's CyberStudio 3.1 for Windows and Macintosh in a short amount of time, get this Visual QuickStart Guide. Before explaining the essential features of this Web-authoring and site-management tool, author Shelly Brisbin guides you through Web basics and Web publishing. She makes you feel comfortable in the program by having you navigate the CyberStudio interface and understand its Toolbar, Palette, Inspector, Color Palette, site-management tools, preferences, and Web database (of HTML tags). As you set up your first Web pages, you specify preferences, add and format text, add lists, run a spell check on your work, and run the find-and-replace feature. Next, you design your pages by working with layout grids, images and image maps, lines, spacers, line breaks, tables, scrolling marquees, and the Custom tab. You also learn how to create remote and local links, add anchors, and work with forms, frames, plug-ins, JavaScript, Java, ActiveX, style sheets, regular and Dynamic HTML, and color. Finally, you build a site, set preferences, add resources, use the Site View, manipulate site objects and links, and troubleshoot sites. The book also provides guidance on publishing your site via built-in File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and stand-alone FTP and on exporting your site in special circumstances. An appendix outlines the options on the Basic, Forms, Head, Frames, Site, and CyberObjects tabs of the Palette.
