Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 Course

Hi and welcome to this comprehensive introduction to Adobe Dreamweaver CS4, the world's leading HTML editor and website creation tool. My name is James Gonzalez I'll be your guide through this look at the CS4 version of Dreamweaver which was released by Adobe in the fall of 2008, Dreamweaver's flexible workspace, clean html code and deep feature set has earned it its reputation as the tool of choice for web designers and developers. Personally speaking of all the various software tools that I use throughout my work week Dreamweaver is one of the few that I use on a daily basis and is the one that I am most in the demand to teach, it is just a great tool full stop. I'm an experienced Dreamweaver instructor, having taught every version of Dreamweaver starting from Version 1 and including Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, MX04, Dreamweaver 8, and now Adobe Dreamweaver CS4. I've taught Dreamweaver to hundreds of students all over the world, I use all my Dreamweaver experience in this tutorial to show you what to do but also to discuss what not to do and why. I'll share with you using simple explanations and examples and demonstrations how to avoid the common simple mistakes that I see my Dreamweaver students make on a daily basis. The aim of the series of movies which comprise this tutorial is to provide you with concise but complete demonstration of the tools and techniques you'll need to know in order to immediately start creating your own webpages and websites. However, this is not so much a course about all the buttons in the graphical interface and what they do, but rather a clear step by step series of demonstrations of how to use the applications to efficiently create effective webpages and websites. If you learn by watching and listening to a sequenced set of movies showing you how to use a software application and including plenty of relevant examples then this is the learning resource for you. The course is divided up into sections of about ten closely related movies with each individual movie no longer than about seven minutes but averaging about five minutes. Before we go any farther, I need to orientate you with how these movies are recorded, I'm currently using screen capturing software to record my voice and computer screen as I run through each of my software demonstrations. The images that you see running on my screen are being captured by this screen recording program so you'll see in real time examples of each of the Dreamweaver technique as I perform them on my computer. Now if you've never used Dreamweaver before move on to the next movie ÒWhat is Dreamweaver?Ó If you have used another version of Dreamweaver before you'll want to skip the next movie and view the following two movies covering what's new in the CS4 version of Dreamweaver to catch up on all the changes that Adobe has has implemented in its latest version of this application.
