Hi Janine,
Thanks for all your great work teaching Dreamweaver! I’m looking for the simplest way to develop a sitewide search engine in which the user types into a blank field and sitewide search results appear. Can this be done through any Spry widgets inside Dreamweaver?

Kendra

I’m writing in part to tell you how much I’m enjoying your book, although I’m still very new to the concepts, the Dreamweaver program, and web-design in general.
I’m also asking if you might have any recommendations on sources for Dreamweaver templates. I’ve downloaded a some from various Web sites, and I’ve found that they [...]
