Foundation PHP for Dreamweaver 8

3.3/5 ( ratings)

Confession time. When I first started developing dynamic websites with Dreamweaver UltraDev 4, I made a complete mess of things. I believed rather naively that Dreamweaver would "do it all" for me, and that all I needed to do was point and click. The first couple of projects actually went well, giving me a false sense of security. As soon as I attempted anything that didn't fit into the same p- tern as the basic tutorials, things began to go horribly wrong. Even though I've always been happy working with code, one look inside Code view sent shivers up my spine. Part of the problem was that I didn't have a clear grasp of database structure or of what server-side technology really involved. The other part of the problem was that I was treating Dreamweaver as a WYSIWYG program. If I saw something wasn't in the right place, I just highlighted it in Design view and hit DELETE. What I didn't realize was that this left behind messy code that caused even the simplest of applications to break. The more I deleted, the worse it got. I don't want that to happen to you. That's why I wrote this book.
