Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
GoLive 6 Magic is the first book of its kind to take the reader beyond teaching GoLive's basics by empowering the reader to use GoLive to its full potential. Paul Vachier and his team of co-authors provide hands-on training through rich tutorials geared toward both the novice and experienced GoLive user. Deborah Hittel-Shoaf, Acquisitions Editor
From the Author
When I wrote this book I asked myself what were the most exciting areas of GoLive 6 that hadn't been covered in any other book? I also asked myself, if I could buy any book on GoLive, what would it look like? With these ideas in mind, I went ahead and found the most qualified co-authors and wrote GoLive 6 Magic. I think this book will open up lots of new areas within GoLive that most people have never been exposed to before. Things like Action and SDK extension development, WAP/WML and i-mode content creation, PHP/MySQL/Dynamic Content integration, and so much more! I think folks will really find some new material in this book that hasn't been covered anywhere else, and hopefully will lead to a whole new understanding of Adobe's exciting updgrade to an excellent Web development tool.
-Paul Vachier

5.0 out of 5 stars
Superb for those who want to master GoLive,
This review is from: GoLive 6 Magic (Magic (New Riders)) (Paperback)
I confess that I'm a fellow author of an Adobe GoLive book, and I love this title. Why? Because it offers long, detailed, masterful tutorials on some of the most complex and underdocumented features in GoLive that can also be incredibly powerful, especially for increasing efficiency and flexibility. GoLive 6 Magic lets your creativity get further unleashed by removing the restriction of relying on your own smarts to learn the most advanced features in the program.I was relieved to read GoLive 6 Magic because it's the graduation present for our readers: many topics on which we can touch briefly or offer a simple overview are presented across several pages with illustrations and accompanying examples on CD-ROM. You learn not only how to use advanced graphics tools, but how to modify GoLive Actions (plug-in JavaScripts) and build rich dynamic content. Far be it from me to suggest you buy both this book and my book, but they're a nice complement to each other. If you've sucked the marrow dry of beginner and intermediate sources, buy this book: it'll help you master the rest of the program.

Become a golive power user,
By "willemdonner" (Whidbey Island, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GoLive 6 Magic (Magic (New Riders)) (Paperback)
Great book for Golive users who want to go to the next level.Golive is a very powerful web authoring program and Golive 6 Magic is very good in showing some of the features that I might have never duscovered on my own. Text macros, Quicktime and Flash sniffer techniques, creating Quicktime sprites and skins, cool DHTML projects (I like the online calender), authoring your own javascript actions, getting into the SDK, setting up your own Dynamic database content management system with PHP and MySQL are some of the 14 projects included. There is a companion CD that has all the data for Golive 6 to use when you follow along with the book. Some of the projects seemed a bit intimidating to an intermediate user like myself, but the book is layed out so clearly that it was fun to delve into the projects. I have set up my own MySQL,PHP database for the first time thanks to Golive 6 magic ( a sample database is included). This is a needed addition to the Golive library.
