Summary: A newbie's opinion
Comment: Had never created a web site, knew nothing about it. Then took a weekend class on web page design. Essentially self-paced, the class relied entirely on this book, and in fact, though the instructor was helpful in untangling us occasionally, the book minimized that.

The book starts with an imaginary company and imaginary web page designer, Connie Lee. As she decides what she wants to do, the authors take you through every step she does. Every click, every entry.

The book is well laid out, in that when opened, the left page tells you what to do, while the right page has screen views showing what you should be looking at.

The book starts at the very beginning, designing your website, and goes to the very end, or publishing your web site on the Internet.

I went through the entire book and never found a typo or garbled instruction.

The book is excellent for what it intends to do, and that is to give an introduction to web page design. It's very well illustrated and can be used later when you need to recall how something is done.

I wish it explained more of the many options in FrontPage 2000 instead of just telling us what to do to accomplish the task at hand. And I wish it included an explanation of getting information from the user that automatically becomes part of the website for other users to see. Both of these are probably in the next higher level book.

This book is more than enough for someone wanting to set up a simple home page for family photos. It's an almost complete book for someone wanting to set a business page on line, though I can now better appreciate how hard that is to do well.

Good starter book, but doesn't take you all the way there if it's a business you're trying to support.
