Instead of a tutorial where you work through a specific project, the lesson in this book walks you through your documents <I>while</I> you work on them.<p> If you've used QuickStart guides before, you know how convenient they are as references. Succinct text eliminates having to wade through discourses on theory or history, and a thorough index directs you to answers quickly. Plus, with their small footprint, these guides earn their place on a crowded desk. The QuickStart series is consistent in style (with numbered steps in one column, screen shots in the other) and quality.<p> Even within this established format, author J. Tarin Towers's light and friendly style shows through--making for interesting reading. The author has also included numerous sidebars on how things work (for example, using measuring units such as pixels, picas, or ems) and timesaving features (for example, the Hints menu in the Quick Tags editor). Alternate methods for executing tasks and other handy information can be found in the many tips that follow each section.<p> Macintosh users in particular should read the introduction, which explains the few, but crucial, differences in the Windows version of Dreamweaver. This affects the way screen shots look throughout the book.<p> This edition has four new chapters that cover changes in Dreamweaver 3. Since one of the best features of Dreamweaver is the ease with which you can view and edit source code, the book devotes a chapter to HTML and the application's tools for working with it (for example, the new Clean Up Word HTML command). With more than 500 pages, this is one of the longer QuickStart guides and well worth a spot on a Webmaster's desk. <I>--Angelynn Grant</I><p> <B>Topics covered:</B> Step-by-step instructions for using Dreamweaver 3 (including an introduction to the working environment, palettes, and menus); creating a Web site and site management; working with text, images, links, tables, frames, CSS, DHTML, behaviors, timeline animation, and plug-ins; customizing and automating tasks; working with HTML; and the new features of version 3. 427349 1999 Dreamweaver 3 for Windows & Macintosh, Third Edition (Visual QuickStart Guide) total:2|3:1|2:1| 2 5 4 1 3 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2002 Sat Jan 05 21:36:28 -0800 2008 Sat Jan 05 21:37:18 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Nov 20 17:37:48 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 20 17:37:48 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sat Feb 09 19:46:52 -0800 2008 Sat Feb 09 19:46:52 -0800 2008 2 0 false false Thu Aug 16 11:30:13 -0700 2007 Thu Aug 16 11:30:13 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=438496
