Our two-part series of computer training books covering SharePoint Designer 2007 continues with the SharePoint Designer 2007 Advanced study guide. This manual picks up where the basic study guide left off building on the skills and concepts you already learned.

The Microsoft SharePoint Designer training courseware covers the advanced techniques used when designing and managing websites. First, you'll learn about creating dynamic components, working with multimedia files, using layers in your designs, creating tables, and working with forms. Other topics include using XML content as a data source, applying basic search engine optimization (SEO), and troubleshooting common website problems. From working with web components and multimedia, interactive buttons, layers, layout tables, and forms to creating data-drive pages and advanced site management topics, the SharePoint Designer 2007 Advanced courseware has this software thoroughly covered. By the end of the course, you will be creating and publishing advanced websites from within Microsoft SharePoint Designer.

Each of the course's seven units tackles a different topic and teaches you using easy-to-understand language. Review questions and hands-on exercises reinforce the curriculum. You can use this course to master web design using SharePoint Designer on your own or use it to supplement your existing related courses.
