Pagemill / Adobe GoLive 4
Course Outline
Inductuction to Adobe PageMill and the difference between
the two software's.
Adobe GoLive is an essential tool for developing and managing
cutting-edge web sites. In this course we'll cover
everything from basic web pages to advanced dynamic content.
We'll learn about creating, organizing and
managing Web sites. We'll even take a look at rich content features
such as Dynamic HTML (DHTML), Cascading Style
Sheets (CSS) and JavaScript actions.
Prerequisites
Because of the amount of material we cover in class, we do require
students to be comfortable using a mouse, opening
and saving files, and the general operations of computers. While
we will make every reasonable effort to help, students
with insufficient skills may be required to observe the class
lessons or do their best to keep up without slowing down
the rest of the class. We highly recommend working with the application
tutorial before coming to the course.
