Dreamweaver Cs6: The Missing Manual

Dreamweaver CS6 is the most capable website design and management program yet, but there’s no printed guide to its amazing features. That’s where Dreamweaver CS6: The Missing Manual comes in. You’ll learn to use every facet of this versatile program, through jargon-free explanations and 13 hands-on tutorials.

The important stuff you need to know:
* Get A to Z guidance. Go from building simple web pages to creating rich, interactive websites.
* Learn state-of-the-art design. Create dynamic, visually appealing sites using JavaScript and CSS, and see how HTML5 and CSS3 fit in.
* Add instant interactivity. Use Dreamweaver’s unique Spry technology to easily add complex layout options, like drop-down menus.
* Use timesaving features. Take advantage of Dreamweaver’s libraries, templates, and hundreds of extensions.
* Go mobile. Design sites for smartphones, tablets, and desktop PCs, using the same HTML.
* Simplify site management. Check for broken links, streamline site-wide changes, and reorganize your site in a snap.
