The Complete Idiot's Guide for Dummies
Today I was browsing Barnes and Noble for books on web design and finally narrowed my selection down to the Complete Idiot's Guide to Dreamweaver and Dreamweaver for Dummies. Whenever I seek out a reference guide I always seem to end up this way, blocking the aisle as I contemplate which of the competing versions for the clueless to purchase. This afternoon, however, a new idea occurred to me: When are they going to put out a book called The Complete Idiot's Guide for Dummies, and even more pressing, exactly what kind of a reference manual would it be?

Actually, Rachael, there is such a book! It's called the Dreamweaver All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies. I wrote it back in 2006 for Dreamweaver 8 and have just updated it for CS4. You can expect to see it at B&N and Amazon on Nov 17, 2008. In fact, you can preorder a copy from amazon through this link:
http://www.amazon.com/Dreamweaver-CS4-All-One-Dummies/dp/0470391804/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1222948433&sr=8-1
The book not only tells you everything you want to know about Dreamweaver, but it also teaches you how to use the program, with step by step instruction and tons of great screenshots. Plus, this new version will be in color.
Or, if you're more of a "show me" person, you might like my Dreamweaver For Designers training DVD from ClassOnDemand, also available from Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/Class-Demand-Dreamweaver-Designers-Educational/dp/B000SOOWZM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1222948643&sr=8-1
