I have to disagree with you on this one. I use both DW and CF and switch
back and forth between the two on a regular basis. You can set up
Dreamweaver to ignore CF code quite easily in the Preferences using the HTML
rewriting.
The attitude that only a text based editor is the way to go reminds me of
those who consider using a quill pen and parchment infinately superior to a
word processor or even pen and paper.
