As the Web's popularity continues to soar, so does that of Macromedia Dreamweaver, one of the most elegant and powerful web-page creation programs you can buy. Dreamweaver deploys a rich, well-designed, WYSIWYG environment for building cross-platform, cross-browser web sites; but unlike most visual editors, it doesn't clutter up the underlying HTML code by inserting unnecessary tags that make large web sites difficult to manage. Dreamweaver is a favorite of multimedia designers, thanks to its smooth integration with other Macromedia applications like Flash and Shockwave. Dreamweaver 4 extends Macromedia's lead in the web-design market. The new, more sophisticated Version 4 incorporates the latest developments in browser technologies--and the best way to get the full advantage of these improved features is with Dreamweaver 4: The Missing Manual, the ideal companion to this complex software. Under the guidance of Missing Manual series editor David Pogue, author Dave McFarland brings Dreamweaver 4 to life with clarity, authority, and good humor. After orienting you with an anatomical tour of a web page, the book walks you through the entire process of creating and designing a complete web site. Along the way, a unique "live examples" approach lets you see and test, on the actual Internet, real web pages that follow the development progress of the book's chapters. Armed with this book, both first-time and experienced web designers can easily use Dreamweaver to bring stunning, interactive web sites to life. |

Colophon Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The book was written in Word 2000 and 2001, whose revision-tracking features made life far easier as drafts were circulated from authors to technical and copy editors. The screen images in this book were captured by Ambrosia Software's Snapz Pro X (www.ambrosiasw.com) and the Mac and TechSmith's Snaglt (www.techsmith.com) on Windows. Adobe Photoshop (www.adobe.com) and Macromedia Freehand (www.macromedia.com) were called in as required for touching them up. The book was designed and laid out in Adobe PageMaker 6.5 on a Power Mac 8500, Power Mac G3, and Power Mac G4. The fonts include Formata (as the sans-serif family) and Minion (as the serif body face). To provide the apple logo and figs command symbols, a custom font was created using Macromedia Fontographer. Index entries were typed into a custom FileMaker database, then collated and formatted by a custom indexing program written in MacPerl. The book was then generated as Adobe Acrobat PDF files for proofreading, "beta reading," and final transmission to the printing plant. |
