what is the best and easiest tutorial/guide for dreamweaver 8 for a beginner?

Question

i dont mind if it is video,book or software as long as it is easy to follow for a newbie thanks

Answer 1

Here are 3 links to sites that offer free tutorials, the first one is probably the best for a beginner, it takes you through all the steps you need to use the program properly.

Answer 2

Dreamweaver is relatively easy to use, but it will take you several weeks to get full effect of it.
Then you will realise that:
1. It writes a crap code, hard to maintain,
2. It will NOT do complex things like linking to DBs, PhP and so on.
So...
Throw away DW.
Open a tutorial on HTML
Learn the basics. (1 week)
Learn Java basic (lift examples from other pages)
Learn PhP (www.php.net) (a week to get started)
Learn MySQL (data-bases) (only 5 or 6 functions required)
WRITE YOUR CODE USING NOTEPAD.
Clear, neat, efficient, easy to maintain, and you KNOW what you are doing...
(make a page with DW, read the code: you'll have NO IDEA what you are reading...)
THEN, you'll join the Pros.
