I bought this book and Flash-CIB from Adobe and while the Flash book was error free, this book was not! Two totally different directions in each book. If I could do it again, I'd try another DW book before getting this one! Lesson 14 is a disaster!Book Errors:1. A bunch of typos - including a section that starts off explaining how important being precise is in coding and then they make a typo in the coding themselves 3 steps later!!! And alot of the typos are in the coding (That alone should be a warning sign!!) And there's even a section that repeats the same sentence twice back to back.2. Wrong URLs - towards the second half of the book, the book gives several URLs for more reference - about 80% of them did NOT work! So you're left in the dark.3. Wrong images - some images dont match what is being said or seen on screen4. Lesson 14 is totally screwed up in several ways - they should have titled it "Hey rookie - troubleshoot this section on your own!" -- the kicker is that its not a troubleshooting section, its about working with online data. Even the final sample preview page on the disk was wrong!!! Good Luck!Some other problems I had with this book-- You set up a styled list, delete it several chapters later, do it again a different style, delete that version chapters later, and create a new style of list - so you spend about a 1/4 of the book working on how to make a list look 3 different ways! Waste of time! Would have preferred to learn a better trick!
