About this title

Review

Microsoft Frontpage 2000 Fast & Easy is a good choice for anyone who wants to get to grips with Microsoft's Web authoring tool. It takes you through setting up the program, customising the screen layout, site management, page creation and working with hyperlinks. It then goes on to look at the formatting and creation of tables, lists, frames and forms. Techniques for producing dynamic effects and the integration of image tools with the Frontpage package also get covered in Part IV. The final section, Part V, examines how sites can be updated and published, and the appendix has a useful list of keyboard shortcuts and a comprehensive glossary of technical jargon.

The layout of the book is straightforward and reflects the diagrammatic, step-by-step nature of the series. One word of warming: the whole of the book's interior is produced in blue ink, which takes a bit of getting used to. Still, for those looking for a very basic introduction to the Seattle giant's site design package, this book is as good as any. --Josh Smith

The Internet is all the craze these days and everyone is looking for a presence in this wired world. If you plan to use Microsoft FrontPage 2000 to build your next Web site, "FrontPage 2000 Fast & Easy" will help you get started quickly.

I wrote "FrontPage 2000 Fast & Easy" for the novice Web designer. This book will get you started with a small Web site which you can easily expand as you get more comfortable with the FrontPage software and with building Web pages. You'll progress from creating simple pages, to adding more complex Web elements to your pages (such as tables and forms). You'll also find out how easy it is to manage and keep your Web site up-to-date with FrontPage.
