5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, poor product, June 16, 2000

This review is from: Teach Yourself Intrabuilder in 21 Days (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)

This is a great book. It takes you by the hand and leads through all that is IntraBuilder. The problem is: IntraBuilder isn't a very good product. It's not put together well and the interface is anything but intuitive. However, the book does the best it can with showing you the ins and outs of building Web apps with IB. Henderson's chapters in particular are quite good. I have a couple of his other books and know his style of writing. It's refreshingly honest and straightfoward, even when showing a lemon of a tool.

If you find yourself needing to learn IB, get this book and read it cover to cover.
