![]() Even designers accustomed to writing style sheets by hand may find Dreamweaver’s unified style pane an attractive alternative. Gone are Dreamweaver’s many separate CSS panels, replaced with one single pane that makes it much easier to create, edit, and understand complex style declarations. Whereas the previous version of Dreamweaver offered a quantum leap in CSS support, Dreamweaver 8 offers subtle improvements that make a surprisingly large difference in terms of ease of use. CSS Support and Renderingĭreamweaver’s CSS editing just keeps getting better. As before, I’ll highlight a few areas of particular interest from the standpoint of the individual mental health practitioner considering these packages as tools for site building. ![]() As with our earlier review of Dreamweaver, it’s impossible to do justice to the full feature set of programs as large and complex as these. This review takes a look at each software package in its current state and offers views for those who need to create a web site now, without waiting until some time next year for whatever Adobe will be producing next. Since Adobe’s acquisition of Dreamweaver publisher Macromedia, however, both products are now owned by the same company, and it remains to be seen what impact that may have on the two product lines. While the competition has long centred on Dreamweaver and GoLive, however, I believe most would agree that GoLive has been struggling for quite awhile. So for the many mental health professionals who do want to have a hand in crafting their site’s look and feel - and certainly for those who manage their site’s structure and organisation directly, rather than through a CMS - packages like Dreamweaver and GoLive are worth evaluating.įor years, Dreamweaver and GoLive have been duking it out for the title of most capable visual editor although many different low-end packages are available for building web sites, none compares to these two heavyweights. Although many sites nowadays are created and maintained with a CMS (content management system), which enables webmasters to separate the job of handling content from the job of determining how pages will look, nonetheless visual editors still occupy an important or even essential role for anyone interested in modifying or creating that look in the first place. Readers of our previous review of Dreamweaver MX will know that the main reason packages like Dreamweaver originally came into existence was to provide a way for users to build and edit web pages in an environment where they could see how the page would actually look when displayed by a browser, as distinct from the code-centric environment of the underlying HTML or XHTML.
