Acknowledgments

I'd like to thank everyone who made this book possible: Jill Marts Lodwig, the editor who guided the development and writing of this book with a masterful blend of professionalism, patience, and practicality; Elissa Rabellino, for eagle-eye copyediting and great suggestions about Mac issues; Ann Navarro, for bringing her excellent technical-editing skills as well as a real-world developer point of view to this project; Glen Torbert for his diligence and amazing proofreading skills; Lisa Brazieal, for coordinating the pages and art and making a great-looking book; Angela Kozlowski, for starting the process that led to the reality of this book; Jennifer Taylor and the whole Dreamweaver/Coltrane team at Macromedia who answered every question; and my agent, Carole McClendon, at Waterside, who's always there when I need her and continues to keep me busy writing.

I'd also like to thank all the many others whose names I don't know who helped in the long process of transforming a vision into a book, and all those friends who understood, who offered encouragement and laughter, and who waited for me once again.

And lastbut really first, of courseall the readers who are interested in developing their Web skills and who help keep the Web alive as an evolving medium.
