FrontPage98 is not as simple to use as it might seem. This book is an ideal reference after learning the essentials of the program. Individual pages show one, two, three or more screen images with numbered sequences in the text for guidance in how to achieve what you want. Typical headings are: Importing and Exporting Web Content, Adding Hyperlinks to Images, Adding Background Sound. Pick and choose what you need. This is not a book to read cover-to-cover unless you're a programming freak (in which case you'd learn HTML!) but it's good to have it on your bookshelf when you're setting up or revising your web pages. I found I used this more than other books I have on FrontPage 98. I liked the straightforward prose and the specific images of the computer screens.

This book was perfect when I for the first time started to use FrontPage (my first attempt on a Web-page). It has all the things you need to know to set up a Web-page. I had my Web-page up in a weekend. But the book is not enough if you want to do and understand more fancy stuff. I'm just looking for such a book...

This book does a fine job of covering the functionality of FrontPage 98. It does not go into detail. The book will enable reader to recognize what FP98 will be able to accomplish when it comes to creating a Webpage or pages. It does not cover the complexity of image manipulation or database integration. It does allow the reader to explore almost all of the commands available in the FP98 program.
