Earlier this year I reviewed Dreamweaver CS3the Missing Manual, which I found extremely interesting and helpful as a recent convert to Dreamweaver. Having perused Dynamic Learning Dreamweaver CS3 and the visual aids/examples on the included DVD, I can give this book a strong thumbs-up as well. As a primarily visual learner, I found the abundance of clear color illustrations that take the reader a step at a time extremely helpful. The visuals on the DVD help take these a step further for someone like myself.

I think this book has a definite place on the shelf of anyone learning or in the early comfort stages of using Dreamweaver regardless of whether they own the Missing Manual. On a personal note, after reading the chapters on cascading style sheets, I think I finally understand what they are. I also like the attention to details in chapter 13 regarding debugging a site, generating reports and browser compatibility. By the end of that section, I felt like I could start a new website from scratch and get where I really wanted to go, something I've had in my head, but haven't dared pull out and play with yet.
