About This Course

If you want to design professional-quality Web sites, this is the class for you! In these step-by-step lessons, you'll build an in-class Web site using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5—and in the process, you'll discover how to plan a Web site from the ground up. 

As you create your site, you'll explore the Dreamweaver interface and find out how to make it work for you. You'll discover how to use Dreamweaver's What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG, or "wizzy-wig") features to eliminate the drudgery of hand-coding, while learning how to quickly access your code when you want to.  

You'll work alongside an industry professional as you master skills ranging from using Cascading Style Sheets to creating standards-compliant pages. You'll examine site planning strategies, learn principles of good Web design, and explore Dreamweaver's best practices for maintaining Web sites once they're online. By the time you're done, you'll be using this powerful software tool with skill and confidence.
