Murach S Dreamweaver Cc 2014

With Dreamweaver CC, you can go from staring at a blank screen to launching your first website...without writing any code and without ever leaving the program! All the tools you need are there. But face it, any program that's so comprehensive is going to be complex. So the trick is mastering what all of the program's windows, panels, toolbars, and web technologies do, and how they're interrelated. That's where this book comes in. In contrast to other Dreamweaver books, it integrates all of the skills that you need to build inviting, easy-to-navigate, standards-based websites, using a proven instructional approach that makes all the pieces manageable.

"Until now, my websites looked great but have been coded with what seems like 'duct-tape and bubble-gum' methods, just for appearances and not for professionalism or compliance. This book taught me all that is possible with HTML and CSS coding]]. What a game changer!" That's what one web designer posted about a previous edition of Murach's HTML5 and CSS3. Now, this 4th Edition updates and improves all the HTML and CSS content in the book...and it adds coverage of Flexible Box and Grid Layout, two new CSS3 ways to implement page layouts. So whether you're a web designer, a JavaScript programmer, a server-side programmer, or a rookie, this book delivers all the HTML and CSS skills that you need on the job. This book begins with an 8-chapter hands-on course that teaches you HTML and CSS from scratch, including the latest HTML5 and CSS3 features. This short course ends with a chapter that teaches you how to use fluid design and media queries to implement Responsive Web Design so your pages will look good and work right on any screen, from phone to tablet to desktop. After that, the unique design of this book lets you go on to any other chapter to learn new skills whenever you need them. For example, chapters 9 and 10 show you how to use Flexible Box and Grid Layout. Chapter 13 shows you how to work with forms and data validation. Chapter 14 shows you how to enhance a site with video clips. Chapter 16 shows you how to use CSS3 transitions, transforms, and animations. Chapters 17 and 18 show you how to design and deploy a website. Chapters 19 and 20 introduce other professional skills like how to use JavaScript and jQuery and how to use development tools like Bootstrap, SASS, and Emmet. And after you've learned all the skills that you need, this book becomes the best on-the-job reference you've ever used.

If you're developing websites, you have to know JavaScript. There's no way around it today. And this latest edition of Murach's popular book teaches you how to code modern JavaScript that conforms to the ECMAScript standards, the way the pros do. At the same time, it teaches you how to use jQuery, the classic JavaScript library, to handle the DOM scripting that gives JavaScript so much of its power. And it works no matter whether you're a web designer who's coming from a background in HTML and CSS or a server-side programmer who's coded in languages like PHP, C#, Java, and Python.

Whether you are just starting out in web development or you would like to update your existing skills, this book gets you off to a fast start! In fact, in just the first 6 chapters, you will learn more about web development than you can from most full books. By the end of this crash course, you will be developing web pages the professional way, with HTML or XHTML for the content and CSS for the formatting and page layout. That includes sophisticated page layouts that require the use of the box model, floating, and positioning. In section 2, you will learn all the other skills that you need for developing web pages. Those skills include how to develop forms that are submitted to web servers, how to add audio or video to a page, how to use a style sheet for printing, how to develop pages for mobile devices . . . everything you need for modern web pages. You will also learn how to take your web pages to the next level by using tested JavaScript code for effects like image rollovers and slide shows. In the last section, now that you know how to develop web pages, you will learn how to design an entire web site using today's best practices. You will also learn how to deploy your web site, and how to get it into the major search engines and directories. When you are done, you will have all the perspective and skills you need to develop professional web pages.

Today, jQuery is used by over half of the 10,000 most-visited web sites, and jQuery is one of the technologies that every web developer should master. The trouble is that jQuery is difficult to learn, especially for programming novices. Now, this new book makes it easier than ever to learn jQuery, jQuery UI (User Interface), and jQuery Mobile. In essence, sections 2 and 3 of this book present all of the jQuery and jQuery UI skills that you need for developing professional jQuery applications. With those skills, you will be able to add all of the popular jQuery applications to your web pages: image swaps, image rollovers, collapsible panels, slide shows, accordions, tabs, carousels, and more. Beyond that, though, you will have all the skills that you need for developing unique jQuery applications of your own. But that's just two of the five sections in the book. Because you need to know JavaScript in order to use jQuery, section 1 presents the least you need to know about JavaScript to get the most from jQuery. This is essential for programming novices, but this is also valuable for experienced programmers who may not remember how a specific JavaScript statement or method works. In short, this section makes this book a complete reference for jQuery programmers. In contrast, section 4 takes jQuery to a new level by showing you how to use Ajax and JSON to get data from a web server and add it to a web page without reloading the page. It also shows how to use Ajax and JSON with the APIs for popular web sites like Blogger, YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, and Google Maps. These are powerful skills for enhancing a web site. To complete this package, section 5 presents a complete course in jQuery Mobile, which offers an exciting, new way to develop web sites for mobile devices. Today, the best web sites are available in both full and mobile versions, so this section also shows how to use a JavaScript plugin to redirect a mobile device from the full version of a web site to its mobile version.
