Adobe Dreamweaver

Dreamweaver is not a web design program, rather it is a tool for building web sites once the process of design has been completed. Web design is done using combination of pen and paper and graphic programs such as Fireworks, Illustrator, Photoshop and ImageReady.

It offers a unified environment for the creation and modification of both client-side pages, such as static HTML pages, and dynamic web pages using such technologies as PHP, ASP, ASP.Net, ColdFusion and Java Server Pages, pages which are executed on a server and often interact with information held in databases.

Learning Dreamweaver will enable you to become productive very quickly, since Dreamweaver's visual interface allows users to create and edit pages by using tools and techniques which have become familiar to all computer users such as clicking on icons, dragging and dropping and choosing element attributes from toolbars.

However, attending a training course on Dreamweaver will not make you an expert on web-development and your Dreamweaver classes will need to followed by training on the technologies underlying web pages: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL, etc.
