Welcome to Dreamweaver CS3. This new version of the popular web design software offers a rich environment for building professional sites, with drag-and-drop simplicity, clean HTML code, and dynamic database-driven web site creation tools. Moreover, it's now integrated more tightly with Adobe's other products: Photoshop, InDesign, Flash, and their siblings. But with such sophisticated features, the software isn't simple.
So say hello to Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual, the fifth edition of this bestselling book by experienced web site trainer and author David McFarland. This book helps both first-time and experienced web designers bring stunning, interactive web sites to life. With jargon-free language and clear descriptions, this new edition addresses both beginners who need step-by-step guidance as well as long-time Dreamweaver users who need a handy reference to address the inner-workings of the program.
Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual teaches designers how to construct and manage web sites by examining web-page components and Dreamweaver's capabilities through "live examples". With a complete A-Z guide to designing, organizing, building and deploying a web site for those with no web design experience, this book: - Takes you through the basics to advanced techniques to control the appearance of your web pages with CSS
- Shows you how to design dynamic database-driven web sites, from blogs to product catalogs, and from shopping carts to newsletter signup forms
- Teaches you how to master your web site, and manage thousands of pages effortlessly
Witty and objective, Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual is a must for anyone who uses this highly popular program, from beginners to professionals. Altogether, it's the ultimate atlas for Dreamweaver CS3.

Summary: Exactly what it says! Great "missing" manual
Comment: After being picked to take on the revamp of the company website, I jumped into Dreamweaver as a newb to any kind of web design. I stubbornly stumbled my way through the Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, and lots of other new acronyms for much, much too long. This incredible guide has been the tutorial and go-to resource that saved my you-know-what when it comes down to crunch-time.
While offering the reader work-through examples to gain a grasp of the basics, it also has a lot to offer to the intermediate user. It's a perfect solution for anyone who needs to learn the in's and out's of Dreamweaver -- and fast. Nicely written and easy enough for anyone to follow.

Summary: Not really for the most beginner of beginners imho
Comment: Learning Dreamweaver for the very first time. This book does have a great depth of information...maybe too much so if you want to get started quickly. It gives instructions based on quick menu selections or keyboard strokes on PC and Mac. Definitely a great reference book. I prefer using the Sams Teach Yourself book that I got from the library to learn the basics and then use this Missing Manual as a resource for more in depth knowledge.

Summary: This Missing Manuals is a Winner
Comment: After reading a few of the earlier glowing reviews here I felt comfortable purchasing the book. As a rank beginner and also while taking a class in web-page design at a local Adult school, I relied heavily on this book and actually able to stay ahead of many of my fellow students during the construction of each of our fantasy websites constructed for the class. Our instructor had previously viewed this book and thought the emphasis on CSS (cascade style sheets) would be too technical for his students. I disagree. I shared some of the book's CSS procedures with other students and found most to be impressed with how easy it was to integrate CSS into their own sites. I do agree that you have to wade through quite a bit of theory before getting into the meat of each chapter's project but it is written well with some welcome humor here and there and more importantly, very easy to read. The files needed to construct various websites are down-loadable and accompany the text allowing you to begin making a workable website early on. Great motivation to begin constructing a website. I suggested the purchase of this book to my fellow students, many have done so. You'll like the way the binding allows you to open to any page and it will stay open on that page until you turn it or a breeze does it for you. I think most if not all of the "Missing Manuals" books have this feature. It really helps to keep your place while working on one of the author's projects. It always helps to have some exposure to Dreamweaver whether by an acquaintance in the biz' or a beginning Adult class in web-page design as I did. With the help of this book though and following the author's expert advice you can put together a credible website your first time out, trust me. I did it!

Summary: Did the job!
Comment: I've used Dreamweaver for a number of years. It has changed significantly since I first started and to take advantage of the CS3, I needed more help. This book takes you through things well. Sometimes you have to access information in more than one chapter in the book but those pages are referenced well so you do not get lost. A side benefit, because of the size of the book, you get good weight lifting exercise for your arms - that is suppose to be funny.
