Who Should Read This Book?


If you're reading this section of the introduction, you may be sifting through the dozens of books available online or at your local bookstore, trying to determine which one will suit your needs. Let's look briefly at what this book focuses on, the instructional method used, and the results that can be expected, and this should give you an idea as to whether the book will meet your needs.

If you are a beginning developer who is interested in learning about each of the studio programs, then this book can help you gain a solid understanding of each application and its uses. Intermediate developers who have experience with applications similar to those included in the Studio suite will benefit as well from learning how the various suite programs can enhance their existing skill sets and reduce development time. Advanced developers will benefit from an understanding of how each of the applications integrates with the others. Although advanced Flash developers might understand the ins and outs of ActionScript, they might not know the best ways to integrate their Flash creations into a ColdFusion-based site or an intranet application developed in ASP.

With respect to the instructional method used, this book uses a writing style that is informal and relaxed. Learning how to use one new product, let alone five, can be a bit on the difficult side, so a little humor can go a long way in communicating the information. So, with respect to the various bad jokes and silly puns you'll find throughout the book, I apologize in advance <G>.

When you are finished reading the book, you should have a solid understanding of each of the applications and how to use their most common features. After you have completed the chapters and the exercises for each section, the book should also serve as an excellent reference tool for future projects.
