Product Description
Product Description
Dreamweaver CS3, now included as part of Adobe's Creative Suite 3, is the leading professional Web design and development application in the market, and is a must-have tool for any Web designer or developer. Dreamweaver CS3 offers new CSS layouts, a unified CSS panel, and CSS visualization tools that let users create interactive Web sites without having to delve into code. Dreamweaver users can now create dynamic interfaces using the Spry framwork for Ajax. (Spry is 99% HTML, so it's accessible to both designers and developers). Spry widgets (pre-built user interface components) let users quickly add common user interface components to Web pages. Each chapter in this full-color book contains a project that builds upon the reader's growing knowledge of Dreamweaver, while review questions at the end of each chapter reinforce the most important skills. Readers will learn how to customize a Dreamweaver workspace, apply cascading style sheets, enter headline and body text, insert graphics and rollovers, and add links to a page. They'll also learn how to add interactive elements to their site, such as behaviors, effects, and Flash video; add new code or code snippets; and publish their finished site to the Web.

Many errors,
By
This review is from: Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Classroom in a Book (Paperback)
Prospective buyers should be warned that this book contains many errors and that the accompanying CD is missing a few files. Luckily, you can obtain updates including a list of corrected errors and the missing files at www.peachpit.com/dwcs3cibOther than that, I'm enjoying working through the book. I knew it contained errors and was able to find the corrections in time. If I had designed this book, however, I would have designed the exercises in such a way that the reader would have to build a site almost from scratch, with the exception being assets such as text and images. I'm curious as to why Amazon.ca has not published other reviews of this book. Surely, I'm not the first Amazon customer to notice the errors.

Boo! Terribly disappointing!,
By Margo (British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Classroom in a Book (Paperback)
I am so totally disappointed with this book. I've used the Classroom in a Book series in the past to learn Photoshop and GoLive and found them to be very useful. However, this one is completely frustrating because it misses key steps in the lessons, inserts concepts/terminology without any introduction or explanation, contains errors (some minor, some crucial) and simply doesn't flow. Perhaps it would be fine if a person already knew how to use Dreamweaver, but then, why would they be using this book?? Fortunately, I also purchased Creative Suite 3 Design Premium for Dummies, which, although doesn't fully cover Dreamweaver, has helped pick up the pieces that Classroom in a Book has omitted. Two thumbs way way down on this one!!

Good beginner book,

This review is from: Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Classroom in a Book (Paperback)
I'm not a great fan of the Classroom in a book collection. They are good to make very basic exercices to get you started, but you really need a more advanced book after that if you want to go deeper...That said, this book is one of the good books in this collection. It provides enough informations for you to be able to create a basic website. I particularly loved the lesson 7 about layout and lesson 9 about Spry. I'm an Adobe Certified Expert for DW CS3, so I only use this book for teaching, but it's a good one. For more advanced stuff (and reference book), I recommand Dreamweaver CS3 Visual Quickstart (Dreamweaver CS3 Bible, which I didn't look at, should be a good choice too...).
