Join me in an online seminar
March 26th, 2008
All this week, Adobe is running Adobe Developer Week, a series of seminars on web development. On Friday 28 March, it’s my turn to give a talk called “The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS, Ajax, and PHP”. If that sounds an incredibly ambitious subject for a one-hour talk, it is, but what the heck. Actually, Adobe simply decided to use the title of my book; but there’s no way I can cram the content of all 750 pages into my talk, so what I plan to do is give a little flavour of each aspect: CSS, Adobe’s version of Ajax (Spry), and PHP. I’ll be demonstrating live with Dreamweaver, showing tips and best practice techniques.
So, why not join me online at 1600 UTC (0900 PST) on Friday? To participate, you need to register on the Adobe website. Up to 2,500 can join the live presentation, and it will be available as a recording about a week later. One lucky person joining the live seminar will be chosen at random to receive a free copy of Dreamweaver CS3, Flash CS3, or Flex Builder 3. (Unfortunately, for legal reasons, the draw applies only to the US and Canada.)

David thanks for this great Book. I appreciate the accuracy and the detailed coverage for Mac. Have you ever used MAMP (http://www.mamp.info/en/index.php)
It is quick and easy to setup on the Mac and I have adapted the examples in your book to work with it without any trouble.

Thanks for reminding me, Emile. The URL is rather hard to find, so I have created a separate blog post about it here.
Yes, I have tried MAMP briefly. It seems very good. I’m glad to hear that you are finding it reliable.

I also tried XAMP. Not bad. My production site will be on Centos with PHP/APACHE and either mySQL or PostgreSQL. Any thoughts on why Adobe only offers built-in support for mySQL but not for PostgreSQL would be appreciated. Both are good databases. Thanks for the hint on the discount but I already have the hard copy of your great book. Take care and keep writing great books!
