Professional Web designers and developers need look no further to find the perfect Web authoring tool. Dreamweaver 8 offers support for modern browsers and standards and makes it easy for you to get your site up to speed with those technologies. In fact, the biggest drawback to Dreamweaver 8 is that it is so complex that amateur Web designers will find it overwhelming. There is a lot to learn and use in Dreamweaver 8 and unless you're willing to take the time, it can be a steep learning curve.
Dreamweaver continues to produce good clean XHTML code without a lot of extraneous tags and special codes. In code-view, Dreamweaver offers color-coding and code formatting similar to the Code Sweeper in Homesite. In design-view, Dreamweaver provides more visual cues for layout and design elements so that CSS is easier to review and update quickly.
