Hi,
I just released a new video tutorial on Dreamweaver CS3. In this video (part 1 of 3) I walk you through the process of building your first web page with Dreamweaver CS3.
This video targets people new to Dreamweaver and people new to web design.

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.
Thanks,

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:
… There’s more for sure, but those are the things that stand out for me.
Hi,
I just released a few CPANEL video tutorials that are targeted at people who are new to this popular web hosting management software.
What is CPANEL?
CPANEL is a web based program (runs in a web browser) that hosting companies provide to clients so that clients can easily edit things about their web hosting account:
… And a lot more.
You can find the collection of videos here:
So far, this is what I have up:
– Setting up email with CPANEL
– Using File Manager in CPANEL
– Uploading web pages with CPANEL
– Setting up MySQL with CPANEL
If you have any suggestions regarding any other topics, let me know.

Hi,
I just wanted to announce that I am now giving away a series of video lectures on Ajax – about 3 hrs worth.
The Videos:
These videos are not designed to be a tutorial, but rather, they are a lecture. None the less, these videos can help give you at least a basic understanding of what Ajax is all about.
Anyway, they are free, so what do you have to loose!
😉
If you guys want a proper killersites style (simple, practical and to the point) video tutorial, please let me know.
Thanks,

A common question I get from people, is whether it makes sense to go to college to learn web design?
I’ve talked about the web design profession in other articles. Yet, as you will see in the following email I recently got, I haven’t dealt with all the issues regarding web design and education:
Hi Stefan,
Anyway, I am interested in web design. I am in the middle of trying to figure out whether I should go to my local community colleges for courses in HTML, photoshop, Dreamweaver, etc … or an actual art school for graphic art/ web design. Of course cost is a factor.
I am a mother of two, and my work schedule needs to be flexible. I am very creative and have a great eye for design.
My question is, which course of action you recommend? How much education is necessary? Is a degree necessary, if so, what type? associate, bachelors, certificate?
What are the salary potentials in web design working for yourself and for outside companies (I have research outside company positions advertising 40k – 50k, is that realistic?)
I’m not young, (a youthful 44) and I really need to do something in the form of a career for myself, other than taking care of everyone else.
Thank you so much for your time-
Sandy
