It takes a step-by-step approach to getting you very quickly up to speed on what you need to know in order to take some more advanced steps into Dreamweaver and Fireworks. Well conceived, well organized, and well written, this book is a definite permanent addition to the stack of books next to my computer.

This book is definitely for you!

I've got to agree with the other reviewers. I've got some expereince with digital media and picked this book up on a lark hoping to get a good intro to Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I found it! Even though the book is meant for beginners, it didn't talk down to me at all. It didn't treat me like an idiot whose hand needed to be held...that means a lot!The content was extremely well presented and thought out. The author wasn't above referring to other sources if he didn't discuss what you wanted to know. He also was crystal clear about what the book covered - so you weren't buying a pig in a poke. Let me tell you, if Ethan Watrell ever put together an advanced dreamweaver and fireworks colume, I would be first in line!!

Wonderful Intro to Dreamweaver

I've got absolutely no experince with either Dreamweaver, Fireworks, or web design in general. I picked up the Ethan Watrall's Visual JumpStart book in order to get a running start...and boy was it great! Everything I needed to know to get started. When finished, I was in a great position to move on to bigger and mre complex things. Wonderfully written!

Wonderfully Written Intro to Dreamweaver & Fireworks

I used Dreamwevare back @ v2, but I hadn't used it since. So, in order to do some remedial work, I picked up this book. I was pleasantly suprised by the fact that it was extremely well written and very complete. Despite the fact that it is really only an introduction, I leaned am amazing amount about Dreamweaver and Firewqorks. This book is solid. I recommend it not to just beginners, but also to those with more experience with Dreamwevaer & Fireworks. This is definitely a must buy!

Excellent for beginners

I am not a Fireworks user, but I feel that this book is excellent on its Dreamweaver merits alone. I am an instructor at a small school that offers classes in Dreamweaver. This is one of the best beginner-level resources I have seen to date. It offers a complete rundown of the basic Dreamweaver functionality and serves as a springboard for users to graduate to more of the intermediate to advanced features. This will be my textbook for Intro to Dreamweaver.
