UNCONFIRMED  errors and comments from readers: 

(59)  TIP Box;
I believe that in two instances, in the TIP Box, nav area "height", really should
refer to nav area "width". The width is set as 100 pixels in Figure 4-11.

(63, 67)  Fig. 2-3, Fig. 2-5;

a. 1st paragraph, 1st sentence: "christmas" should be "Christmas."
b. 1st paragraph, 2nd sentence: "trap of mile and cookies" -- "mile" should be "milk."
c. 2nd paragraph, 1st sentence: "a sack of present" -- "present" should  be "presents."

(278) Step 7;
Instruction do not translate properly for the Mac platform.

[306] last paragraph in box at bottom;
The websites you give on floats are wrong. In fact, good information on floats is missing totally from the missing manual.

[328]  Boxed note;
The warning is overstated.  Although Dreamweaver has indeed already rewritten the
code by the time it displays the "Warning" message, it does NOT automatically save
the rewritten file.  While you can't cancel the changes or even use the Undo
function, you can simply close the file without saving changes, and the original file
will still exist in its original location in its untouched form.

(650) Figure 18-4;
Load and Save labels on the diagram should be the other way around

[688] NOTE;
Links to sawmac.com website is not running or active, cannot get online samples

[713]  Step 6;
Replace:

"In keeping with the above example, you would type prodPrice into the box, since
that's the name of the menu on the form page."

with:

"In keeping with the above example, you would type price into the box, since that's
the name of the menu on the form page."
