Summary: Not what I had anticipated
Comment: This book didn't meet my expectations. As another reader mentioned, the author spent a great deal of time talking about colors and style-sheets. Although they are important topics, I bought the book to learn about frontpage 2000. I fumbled around in FrontPage for about 2 weeks prior to purchasing this book. This book didn't tell me anything more than what I had already learned from using the program. So my recommendation is if you are new to frontpage and web design, this might be a good book for you. If you want to take frontpage to the next level , buy "FrontPage 2000 Developer's Guide".

Summary: Definitely not for rookies...Great for the experienced user!
Comment: I keep reading these negative reviews on this book and I am astounded to hear so many complaints. I have three 800+ page books on FrontPage and this is by far the best. Several times I have needed to look for help on specifc matters and it never fails...the best and most comprehensive information is in this book. Now, let me say that if you are new to FrontPage, do not waste your time with this book. You will hate it. It will truly make your head spin. It is not written to help you understand FP, rather is is written in a way that assumes that you are an experienced user. That said, there are a few things that this book chooses to leave out but for 99% of you out there using FP, this book is a reference to all your ever need. Notice I said reference. After you've worked with FP for a few months or a few years, you are going to want to be able to get at the nuts and bolts of what it can do. You aren't going to want someone explaining what a table is as though you are in first grade. If that sounds like you then this is the book for you. I love this book so much that my other FP books never get used. This is my reference material and it does the job every time.

Summary: Save your money and effort
Comment: I bought this book because it was on sale at Costco and I had just started using FP 2002 and didn't have any references. The few times I have tried to look up a topic in this either it wasn't in the index (example follows) or the explanation explained nothing. I inadvertently misset my SaveResults option for my feedback page and since I hadn't looked at that page for a long time I couldn't remember exactly how it worked. Although there is a (poor) illustration of a feedback page on page 701, unbelievably "feedback" does not occur in the index. It took around 30 minutes of searching to find this. Although this was the most egregious example I've had there have been numerous others that I didn't think to document. This is one of the worst computer books (of 100s) that I have ever owned.
