Customer Reviews

Great book for study for MS exam

My knowledge of FrontPage 98 was small before I picked up this book. I do, however, have a fair bit of computing background. I used this book as my main source to pass the Microsoft MCP exam 70-055. It covered most of the material fairly well. Need to have plenty of hands on exposure as well. The only criticism I have is that the method and extent to which database access was covered needs some work. Good alround book for the beginner to semi advanced user. If you're already well experienced in the use of FrontPage then you'll need something deeper than this book.

A must have resource for anyone using FrontPage 98

Although the author tends to elaborate in non-essential areas he more than makes up for it in the technical aspects. Well indexed and easy to find the areas of interest

very detailed yet easy to understand. Extremely helpful

This book gives you details that the Microsoft manual doesnt give you. It is thorough in every aspect of creating,editing and publishing a website with Frontpage98.

*The* source for FrontPage Documentation

I am the proud owner of "Running FrontPage 98", a valuable tome that I have found very easy to understand. I only wish I had something like this when I was self-teaching myself FrontPage 1.1. Jim Buyens is to be praised for the clarity and detail he put into this book. In plain english, he not only describes the uses of FrontPage, but he actually goes and explains aspects about the Internet that can often be confusing. Jim picks up where the normal FrontPage documentation leaves off. If I had a question on how basic or advanced features worked in FrontPage, all I needed to do was check the index and flip to the section. On very rare occasions, will I loan this book out, and even then, it is never far from my cubicle. You want to learn FrontPage? This is the book for you.

Most comprehensive FrontPage 98 book available

Jim Buyens has created one of the most comprehensive and informative guides to FrontPage 98 available. Running Microsoft FrontPage 98 covers nearly every aspect of FrontPage imaginable -- including an overview of the FrontPage environment, organizing content, style, artistic design, hyperlinks, tables, formatting text, images, forms, adding databases, FrontPage Components, and much more. Unlike many web publishing books, Buyens also describes in easy-to-understand terms the technical side of how the World Wide Web works. A cross-referenced index and searchable version of the book on the included CD-ROM makes finding information in the guide easy. A tear-out quick reference card included in the book contains keyboard shortcuts and descriptions of each button. Although Buyens does a great job of describing each FrontPage aspect, screen shots and tables on virtually every page of the book make the content even easier to understand. Even the most experienced FrontPage webmaster will find something new and useful in this guide.
