So, very disappointed in the Dreamweaver training. Even more disappointed than I was in InDesign. Both classes were taught by the same person and that may have something to do with it.

Anyway, I am no stranger to Dreamweaver. Its what I used to build this site and several others. Its pretty much how I cut my teeth on HTML. So, I wasn't too worried when he started off talking about very basic things. As a matter of fact, I kind of zoned out a bit until I heard him say that Dreamweaver was basically a layout tool. It seemed a rather strange statement to make about something that has so many coding capabilities and made me question what he knew about HTML in general.

So, I'm sitting there trying my best to keep from looking as bored as I was. My boss was sitting next to me and she wrote me a note saying something along the lines of "he's going to start talking about table layouts." Sure enough, the second I finished reading the note, he starts talking about using tables to create your web layouts.

It wasn't until he started talking about ALT tags that my boss got really fed up. He basically told the entire class that the W3 Consortium would come after a business or entity for not using ALT tags in their web sites. At that point she wrote a note that said "This guy is a hack. Let's leave." I stifled a giggle and figured we would leave at the next break. Only she started gathering her stuff together, just as he started talking about the Assets Panel in Dreamweaver, she whispers "gather your assets." And we did. All four of us just walked out. Of course we helped ourselves to the complimentary sodas on the way out.
