Book description
Need to take your Macromedia Dreamweaver skills to the next
level? You don't have to be a programmer to build interactivity
into your site. You just need Dreamweaver 8—Macromedia's
powerful new Web design and development tool—access to a Web
server and an application server, and a copy of Macromedia
Dreamweaver 8 Advanced for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickPro
Guide.
Takes a visual, task-based approach to guiding you through advanced topics and applying what you learn
Works like a reference book - you look up what you need and then get straight to work
Concise, straightforward steps and explanations offer the fastest way to learn tasks and concepts
Companion Web site includes sample files
This valuable reference picks up where the Visual QuickStart
Guide leaves off with advanced step-by-step tutorials on
working with servers, setting up database connections, using SQL,
and building dynamic pages—and that's just in the first half
of the book! The book's second half includes clear, concise
instructions on how to build dynamic forms and dynamic tables,
create a search page for your site, and control access to your site
with a user log-in and password.
You'll get real-world examples and detailed illustrations of how
and when features should be put to use, including what's new in
Dreamweaver 8: code-editing improvements such as the coding toolbar
and code collapse, drag-and-drop integration of XML data,
server-side transformations with XSLT, support for PHP 5 and
ColdFusion MX 7, and more!
