Product Description
When it comes to building professional websites, Dreamweaver CS4 is capable of doing more than any other web design program -- including previous versions of Dreamweaver. But the software's sophisticated features aren't simple. Dreamweaver CS4: The Missing Manual will help you master this program quickly, so you can bring stunning, interactive websites to life.
Under the expert guidance of bestselling author and teacher David McFarland, you'll learn how to build professional-looking websites quickly and painlessly. McFarland has loaded the book with over 150 pages of hands-on tutorials to help you create database-enabled PHP pages, use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for cutting-edge design, add XML-based news feeds, include dynamic effects with JavaScript and AJAX, and more. This witty and objective book offers jargon-free language and clear descriptions that will help you: - Learn how to control the appearance of your web pages with CSS, from the basics to advanced techniques
- Design dynamic database-driven websites, from blogs to product catalogs, and from shopping carts to newsletter signup forms
- Add interactivity to your website with ready-to-use JavaScript programs from Adobe's Spry Framework
- Effortlessly control the many helper files that power your website and manage thousands of pages
- Examine web-page components and Dreamweaver's capabilities with the book's "live examples"
Perfect for beginners who need step-by-step guidance, and for longtime Dreamweaver designers who need a handy reference to the new version, this thoroughly updated edition of our bestselling Missing Manual is your complete guide to designing, organizing, building, and deploying websites. It's the ultimate atlas for Dreamweaver CS4.

 Highly Recommend this book to learn about Dreamweaver. March 11, 2010
GPDMTR25 (Sunny California)
There are some very good reviews here so I'm not going to go into too much detail about the book. I just wanted to add my 5 stars because I think it's a very good book. I had also purchased the How-to 100 essential techniques book and reviewed it with 1 star, don't waste your money, but with The Missing Manual you're really learn how to use Dreamweaver. The beginning of each chapter has an in-depth explanations about a subject then at the end of the chapter you do an exercise to make sure you really understand how to do it. The CD, that comes with the book, contains the exercises so you can practice it on your own computer. Great Book for a great price.

I am 67,retired, and have a web site just for fun and something to do. I built site was four years ago with Dreamweaver MX 2004.
When I got a new MAC, I also got dreamweaver CS4 and spent a frustrating month trying to use it. Mr. McFarland's book has made sense out of an overly complicated Dreamweaver program. It am very pleased with it and have found it extremely useful. I would highly recommend it, but only if you have a lot of time to digest it. CS4 on the other hand is still a pain in the butt due to its unnecessary complexity.

No Longer Missing February 14, 2010

This manual is as good or better than the manuals that Adobe used to include with their software. I just wish that I had gotten this book months ago when I started using DreamWeaver.
good book February 6, 2010
Kay U. Schindel (Madison, WI)
I found the book very helpful. i had used a bit Dreamweaver CS3 and had the CS-bible. So i looked into the CS-4 bible as well but this book seemed much better organized.
I'm just a simple web designer, just for my private needs and our home owners association. No flash, html programming etc. this book also has some areas that go beyond my current needs, so it will be useful to a more experienced web designer.
