Creating a Web Page in Dreamweaver:Visual QuickProject Guide

Description

Sure, the University of Rochester Medical Center used Dreamweaver MX 2004 to rebuild its vast medical library Web site, but all you want to do with it is create a simple Web page! This book is for you-and anyone else who wants to get from start to finish fast on their first Dreamweaver projects. As part of Peachpit's brand-new Visual QuickProject series, this slim, four-color volume recognizes that many of today's busy Dreamweaver users don't necessarily need or want to know about every single feature: Like you, they just want the quickest route to a functional, friendly site. This book provides that by focusing on a single project-a Web page-that you build as you go. Each short chapter uses full-page-width screen shots and step-by-step instructions to distill one aspect of this process-so that by the end of the volume users will have created a simple Web site, filled it with text and graphics, added navigation and links, and tested and posted the final product.
