Book Review - The Missing Manual: Dreamweaver CS3 By David Sawyer McFarland - Page 2

Section 5, "Dreamweaver CS3 Power", shows you how to take advantage of many of Dreamweaver's time-saving devices such as Snippets, Libraries, Templates and tips on automating and customizing Dreamweaver.

Section 6, "Dynamic Dreamweaver", gives you all the know-how to make your sites dynamic. You will learn everything from setting up the site, adding dynamic data to your pages, setting up web pages that manipulate your data as well as advanced features such as password protection, working with additional data sources and authentication. You will also learn how to work with server side XML and XSLT.

Section 7, "Appendixes", gives you resources on finding help when you need it and walks you through Dreamweaver CS3 menu-by-menu.

What I like about this book is that it takes its time and goes from step a to step z with out rushing. If you work through the lessons, you will find yourself really picking up a lot of information and insight into web development. As promised, The Missing Manual: Dreamweaver CS3 is engaging, clearly written, and sometimes funny. If you want to learn Dreamweaver and you don't want the pain of learning it on your own, then The Missing Manual: Dreamweaver CS3 is a must have.
