This easy-to-use guide is designed to make creating a Web site more intuitive and efficient. Filled with practical tips and easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, this book will your secret weapon in the race to design beautiful and functional high-end Web sites. When it comes to the most advanced HTML features, such as Dynamic HTML and Cascading Style Sheets; this book really shines by making it fun and easy to add animations, rollover effects, and multimedia to bring any site to life. Dreamweaver 4 For Dummies includes all of this and special Fireworks coverage.
As an aspiring web designer I picked up 3 books on the subject of learning Dreamweaver 4. Ms. Warner in 'DUMMIES' leads you through the program without losing you, and at a comfortable pace: the information never gets too dense. The other books either used undefined terms or combined intro and advanced materials together. I recommend this book as the only beginning source necessary (it's the only one I'm using).

This book is extremely easy to use, but you should have somewhat of a background on the subject.
May Be the Very Best Dreamweaver Tutorial
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I'm a technical writer and website builder who asked the webmaster of a national PC manufacturer's site what was the very best book to buy to learn MacroMedia's Dreamweaver -- and he said without missing a beat, "Believe it or not, get DREAMWEAVER FOR DUMMIES! You can go to college with web engineers learning this stuff and you'll see them carrying this book around." Need I say more?
Quick read

I like Dummies books because they lack a tutorial - this book gets right to the point. I prefer to dive right into my project and work it out as I go. I am familiar with other web editors, but new to Dreamweaver and this book has given me the overview that I wanted without having to suffer through a tutorial I didn't really want to work on or mounds and mounds of detail that I don't even need (or that I can find on the web somewhere else.) My web site is relatively simple, though large, so the Dummies book fit the bill.
Great book for beginning and intermediate users

I was a beginning Dreamweaver user who had a little bit of experience using HTML. This turned out to be a great book for me and I'd recommend it to anyone except maybe an advanced Dreamweaver user (I guess that's why it's for Dummies...)
