Product 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.

 Keep away from this book ( r_owen237 )
It is very difficult to design a web page just using this book since some of the steps do not work as stated in the book. eg. Page 56, link text internally. Following the steps will get you nowhere fast. If you are thinking of buying this book take my advice and keep looking.

 A Great Little Book on Getting Started with DW ( wordist45 )
I have several books on web design, and it's about time someone wrote a simple but thorough book on how to get started with Dreamweaver. This is the best I've seen, and I'm moving through it, smoothly, consistently. Yes it can be improved; sticking with a single progressive example would be better. But the other books, e.g., "Dreamweaver H-O-T", throw everything at you but the kitchen sink from the getgo. (And they get off into the weeds too much, and their text sometimes isn't in synch with the CD examples.)
To get started with DW, this is the best book on the shelf.

 Excellent guide! ( hollyg0lightly )
This book is an excellent guide to begin making projects in Dreamweaver. Easy step by step instructions. Anyone can use this computer program if they follow this book!

Anyone have a fireplace? ( arizonaguy )
I really don't like this book -- here's why:
The Visual QuickProject series is "supposed" to be designed to provide you with a quick, basic, step-by-step instruction guide that helps you to rapidly learn how to use a particular software product, such as DreamWeaver. This book DOESN'T EVEN come close to this idea...
Instead, (with the exception of the first 24 pages), the book mostly reads like a dry, topical help manual with no step-by-step, project-related instructions to follow. Sorry Mr. Hester -- your book has definate potential, but it needs to be designed to teach, not simply provide generalized help topics.

Avoid this book.
I have been using Dreamweaver since version 2 and know it pretty well. I purchased this book for my brother because he wanted to learn about Dreamweaver and how to make a simple site. He told me that he was having problem getting through this book. I took a look at it and sure enough p 25 I hit the first problem. The section talks about adding images to a page, but I haven't made a page to add it to. I went and looked on the author's website and he has a section called errors. There he explains that he thought you would use your own page design not the one in the book, even though in the last chapter you just created the home page for this fictional site. As I continued I found this book riddled with error. My suggestion STAY AWAY!!!
