This back- ground in computer science and her experience as both a software developer and an end user perfectly suited her to step into the role of technical writer in 1993. As a specialist in online documentation, Lisa has consulted with a wide variety of clients, designing, writing, and imple- menting their online documentation in formats that include WinHelp, Adobe Acrobat, and HTML. Most recently, Lisa has focused on developing training materials to teach others about her favorite Web authoring tool, Dreamweaver. Rick Scott has worked as a technical writer, programmer, tester, layout artist, instructor, multimedia developer, Web site designer, philologist, linguist, composer, performer, failed screenwriter, (marginally) successful novelist, and devout neopagan herbalist. What draws him to technical writing is the great and good joy of creating Order from Chaos. Daniel Short never planned to be a Web designer, it just happened. He started out in the Army tearing apart computers and eventually began putting together Web sites. Dan is a devoted Macromedian (and Team Macromedia volunteer) and uses almost the entire Macromedia Web Design Suite, including Fireworks and Macromedia Flash. He’s been doing the Web gig since the end of 1998 and has had great luck building his Web design business through Web Shorts Site Design. Dan helps maintain several HTML and Dreamweaver refer- ence sites including DreamweaverFAQ.com, for which he created the style changer and all ASP functionality, including the Snippets Exchange. Dan has also written articles for several resource sites, including AListApart.com, run by Jeffrey Zeldman, and Spider Food.net, run by J.K. Bowman. Dan is a contributing author for Dreamweaver MX Magic (published by New Riders). 014931-6 FM.F 7/18/02 6:54 AM Page vi Simpo PDF Merge and Split Unregistered Version - http://www.simpopdf.com About the Technical Editors Angela C. Buraglia spent six years as an independent film makeup artist before realizing that she wanted a career that would allow her to start a family and stay home with her husband and child. In an effort to give back to the Macromedia Dreamweaver newsgroup community that helped and encouraged her in her new career, she founded DreamweaverFAQ. com. Although she only intended to be a Web developer, life’s path has led her to become that and more. In addition to her contribution to this book, Angela is also a contributing author for Dreamweaver MX Magic (published by New Riders) and ColdFusion MX Web Application Construction Kit (pub- lished by Macromedia Press). Currently, Angela is also a Team Macromedia volunteer for Dreamweaver. Angela’s future plans are to continue developing DreamweaverFAQ.com, to build and sell Dreamweaver extensions, to give presentations at conferences, and perhaps to become involved in new book projects. Long gone are the days of applying makeup; now Angela applies behaviors and CSS to Web sites and — most importantly — is home with her little boy. Marc Garner runs sixtyeight, a UK-based Web design and development company ( www. sixtyeight.co.uk). He has over 15 years experience in the creative design industry, with the last 6 years devoted to Web design and application development. Marc has provided organizations with Macintosh training in major graphics and Internet software packages. In addition, he was the Macintosh technical editor for Dreamweaver MX Weekend Crash Course, also published by Wiley. Away from the studio, Marc can be found painting with Aimee or playing trains with Curtis. Jon Parkhurst’s Internet quest began when he was handed MPI’s Web site in 1995. As he delved further into the underbelly of the Net, he soon became lost with the endless lines of code-crunching minions. In 1996, Jon began doing contract work under CDC Digital ( www.cdcdigital.com) and continued until 2000. Jon currently works as the head of the E-Commerce Department at Unimark, Inc. ( www.unimark.com) and contracts under NetNucleus.org. During the workday, he can typically be found peppering the Macromedia newsgroups as a volunteer Team Macromedia Member. During his off hours, he can be found administering his main personal site, IdentityOutpost.com, or hiking through the foothills of Missouri with his two kids. 014931-6 FM.F 7/18/02 6:54 AM Page vii Simpo PDF Merge and Split Unregistered Version - http://www.simpopdf.com Credits Acquisitions Editor Carol Sheehan Senior Project Editor Jodi Jensen Lead Technical Editor Angela Buraglia Technical Editors Marc Garner Jon Parkhurst Development Editors Erik Dafforn Susan Hobbs Copy Editors Mary Lagu Luann Rouff Editorial Manager Mary Beth Wakefield Vice President and Executive Group Publisher Richard Swadley Vice President and Executive Publisher Bob Ipsen Executive Editorial Director Mary Bednarek Project Coordinator Erin Smith Graphics and Production Specialists Beth Brooks Sean Decker Melanie DesJardins Stephanie D.
