| Maybe I'm strange since most people seem to love this book, but I find it to be not that helpful. The author does seem to know what she's talking about, but I don't like the overall arrangement of the book. For one thing, instead of having a 1-2-3 list for how to do something like the Visual Quickstart guides have, this book has a rather wordy explanation for each procedure. To make matters worse, almost everything has tutorials mixed in with it, so if you just want to see how to do something, you have to also wade through all that tutorial information, which gets to be very frustrating. I can't much assess the tutorials, since I didn't try many of them, but perhaps the book would be simpler to follow with a 1-2-3 explanation of a procedure, then a tutorial about it AFTER that so you don't have to wade through both if you don't need to. Another carp is that the Contents page only gives a page number for the beginning of a chapter, and not for anything within the chapter, so you have to go to the beginning of a chapter and start flipping pages until you come to what you want. And is the Index comprehensive? For instance, I never could find anything on how to align more than one element simultaneously on a layered page, and had problems finding other things too. I finally just gave up on all this and ordered another book on Dreamweaver. Thus, I conclude that MACROMEDIA DREAMWEAVER MX 2004 by Page is OK and will eventually teach you Dreamweaver, but is certainly not very easy to use. |

| This is a pretty good tutorial on using Dreamweaver. The different chapters illuminate various ways of building and organizing your pages. After following the lessons, you can see which method will work for you depending on your desired results and the complexity of your site. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to use Dreamweaver. |

This book was used as a textbook for an IVTech class. It was extremely helpful for an initial exposure to web page development. The chapters are based on the tutorial on the included CD. The bold items in the text allow you to skim through assignments quickly. There is also quite a bit of very helpful detail and background information included.
This book is very good to "handhold" a reader through a totally new topic, yet it also provides enough detail to show the reader how to develop quality web pages.
The one topic that was not covered was how to access a database, although this is covered in a tutorial in the Dreamweaver software. |

This book is okay if you are trying to learn something on your own and need step by step instructions. By no means is this a reference book for dreamweaver or xhtml.
I dont have anything bad to say about the book, but theres nothing unique or intuitive about it either. |
