Description:
Adobe GoLive 4.0 Classroom in a Book, like the other books in the CIB series, is the ideal companion to the software's manuals. It clearly illustrates the methods for building Web sites right from the opening chapter. Starting with basic HTML and including simple tasks like displaying text and organizing it in tables, the book describes the key components of Web sites and how GoLive 4.0 can help you build them. Readers will also find coverage on topics like DHTML code for creating animation and menu rollovers, material that will inspire novice users who want to get up to speed and get on the Web in creative ways. Although targeted at budding Web spinners, some of the more complex issues are not left out. DHTML pages, used for animation and floating boxes for text and graphics, for example, are covered in chapter 5; while cascading style sheets are explored in chapter 7. Anyone who's worked on even a modest-size Web site knows how quickly a site's resources can grow and become difficult to manage and track. The closing chapter, a discussion on overall Web site management, expertly outlines how to organize and maintain medium to large Web sites. Full of helpful screen shots, this is an ideal book for anyone new to Web site construction. You may only lament that the software is not included with it. --Mike Caputo
