Hi,

I just released a new set of Dreamweaver video tutorials that cover Dreamweaver CS3 and CS4. You can find them here:

For these videos, I’ve upgraded both the video and sound quality … and I had to invest to make this happen. So I hope you guys will see and hear the difference!

The video course runs a total of about 7 hours, spanning over 30 videos.

Thanks,

Flash CS3 Video Tutorial: Nested Animations in Movie Clips

Stefan Mischook — Wed, 14 May 2008 00:31:38 +0000

Hi,

This is just the first of many new video tutorials on Flash CS3 (and the upcoming Flash CS4) and Actionscript 3.0.

Video: Nested Movie Clips in Flash CS3

Summary of the video tutorial:

Using Nested Animations in Movie Clips with Flash CS 3
By: Santo Romano
Tutorial level: Beginner to intermediate Flash users.
Flash version: Flash MX, MX2004, CS2, and CS3

When creating simple animations in Flash, the main timeline is often the best place to position your animations. However, when these animations are repetitive, the best way to handle them is to utilize the movie clip symbol in Flash. Unlike the other symbols you’ll find in the Flash environment, the Movie clip symbol is perfectly suited to handle this kind of work. Rather than creating multiple key frames over and over again, it is much better to nest the simple animation inside of a Movie Clip, and to let it handle most of the work.

Thanks,

PHP Video Tutorials for iPods

Stefan Mischook — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 05:56:26 +0000

Because of recent demand, I decided to release my PHP video tutorials in iPod format – that means they play on your iPod.

… OK, you guys guessed that one.

These video were originally intended for viewing on a computer monitor, so some of the code examples will be harder to read since iPod screens are smaller.

Nonetheless, the discussions may be useful to watch on your iPod as you’re … say, on your way to work or school.

A small note: I’ve added some brief comments (in text) about each video, to give you a better idea of what you will find in the video before downloading it.

You can find the videos on the new iPod video page.

Thanks,

Stefan Mischook

Hi,

I’ve just released a new beginners video tutorial that introduces people to PHP sessions:

PHP Sessions Video Tutorial

PHP sessions are one of the most important mechanisms in PHP because they solve a fundamental issue in web application development: keeping state on a user.

If what I just says confuses you, no worries, it’s explained in the video.

This is video 1 of 3 on sessions.

Free Dreamweaver CS3 Video Tutorials

Stefan Mischook — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 05:40:34 +0000

After a few years of (I must admit) pure laziness, I finally started to work on a new set of Dreamweaver CS3 video tutorials.

… But, to be fair to myself, I wasn’t in a hurry to upgrade my Dreamweaver MX videos since the differences between CS3 and MX are really minimal … most of the changes are ‘under the hood’.

What is new about Dreamweaver CS3?

Dreamweaver CS3 is Adobe’s first official release of the software (Adobe just bought Macromedia) and so Dreamweaver CS3 now has the Adobe look and feel that is consistent across all their products including, Photoshop CS3, Illustrator CS3 etc …

Beyond that, the following things stand out:

Better CSS support.
Better FTP and site management tools.
Ajax support with the Spry framework.

… There’s more for sure, but those are the things that stand out for me.

About the Videos

My first set of videos will be a beginners course designed for total beginners to Dreamweaver and web design. I will be giving away nearly half that course in the new Dreamweaver section in killersites.com:

www.killersites.com/dreamweaver/

You can check out the videos I have up so far directly:

Setting up a website in Dreamweaver CS3 (Part 1)
Setting up a website in Dreamweaver CS3 (Part 2)

Later on, I will start exploring more advanced features found in Dreamweaver:

Ajax and the Spry framework.
Dynamic websites .. data-binding.

CIAO,

Stefan
