Amazon.com Review

From installing FrontPage97 to picking a server on which to deploy the finished results, Special Edition Using Microsoft FrontPage 97 has everything you'll need to know to build and manage your Web site or intranet. The chapters are arranged in a progressive fashion, leading the reader through each logical step of FrontPage's site-building process. You can use this book as a basic tutorial, although there are other books that may provide easier short-term help in getting started. And don't mistake Special Edition Using Microsoft FrontPage 97 as a simple lesson plan--it has enough in it to guarantee lasting value as both a reference source and a more advanced guide.

Each section is deeply packed with reference information, example programs, and tutorials for the more advanced functions. In addition to specific FrontPage topics, such as building your own WebBots, there are chapters on JavaScript, Java, ActiveX, and VBScript, complete with sample programs to install and run. Essentially a complete Web master's guide to FrontPage, this volume is successful as both a reference volume and an advanced tutorial.

2.0 out of 5 stars An utter calamity!, October 21, 1997

By A Customer

I've read some excellent books from QUE and I must say that this book was a true dissappointment. It is quite evident that several authors contributed to this work which resulted in a lack of consistency between different sections and chapters. There were several instances in the book in which an editor would write comments intended to be seen only by the author for clarification that was accidentally published instead and should not have been. For a few examples see p. 736, 747 where the reader can read comments left by a person named Kyle, which I presume to be an editor written to the author. Not enough attention to detail was given in the sections pertaining to VBscript and JScript. The author of that section writes in such an esoteric way that the reader almost has to already know Visual Basic or Java to be able to understand the programming samples. Overall, the organization of the book was good. However, that alone cannot overcome the mistakes, lack of consistency throughout the book, and poor explanations of the programming samples.

I wrote Chapter 11 on HTML. When I saw the whole book, I was thrilled that I had been asked to be part of it

2.0 out of 5 stars A book for only beginners but priced for experts., July 30, 1997

By A Customer

Although I'm a big fan of Que's books on computing and programming, this Special Edition Using Microsoft Front Page was the most disappointing book I've ever purchased from them. It's priced in the upper range but doesn't even compete on par with the other books for novices. Over the 400 pages in the book, I'd estimate that 100 are just trivial discussions about what HTML and Internet basics are. The worst aspect of the book is its examples. Say, for example, you want to insert a survey form in your web site. If you follow ANY of the examples in this book, you only get one-third of the process -- leaving the reader in the dark how to implement the other 2/3's of the process and make the programming successful. Save your money on this one.
