This guide contains hundreds of oversized screenshots to guide you through each task, screen by screen. There's a sample generic Web site created with Dreamweaver and Flash that the reader can modify to his/her specific needs. The book uses the Visual Learning Technology.
(...) I was reluctant to buy this book. This book is not for the complete novice. You need to have a very basic understanding of HTML. What this book does is give you a very good over view of both Dreamweaver 4 and Flash 5. It then goes two steps further. It shows how you can use both programs together, easily, and it shows some advance functions of Flash 5.0. If you have both programs, and have a little hands on experience this is the ideal book for you. The two things that ended up being the deciding factor on getting this book was how clearly they show you where things are. This was very important to me, as my wife wanted to learn both programs and would be able to do so easily. Next, I sat down and compared this one book to two other books I was considering buying. (One was an Dreamweaver 4 book and the other a Flash 5 book.) In doing so I found that this book covered nearly everything they did, but offered the additional information on using the programs together and advance features of Flash. Price wise, it was cheaper buying this one book then buying the two.
