One of our instructors and well known author David Powers, has just released his latest book “Adobe DreamWeaver CS5 with PHP” published by Adobe Press. The book is currently a very affordable £18.50 on Amazon, and is David’s 8th book on the subject of Web Development.  David has had some great reviews on his previous books published by Friends of Ed and we’re sure this new one from Adobe Press will prove to be just as popular.  He probably knows more about DreamWeaver than almost anybody we’ve ever met, and that’s saying something.  Congratulations David.

When I upgraded to Captivate 5.0, I found that I had to change the way in which I do my manual recordings. This is because Captivate 5.0 captures the mouse position during manual recording rather differently than previous versions: when you press the screen is capured, and the current position of the mouse pointer is used as the destination for the movement of the mouse on that slide. In Captivate 4.0 and earlier, the position of the mouse when you pressed was used as the origin for the movement of the mouse on that slide.  Read more...
