Dreamweaver is indeed a nice product, but I tend to be biased towards cfeclipse. It's got most of the features I need because I put them there ;)
I have used CFStudio, Homesite 5.5 , Homesite+ and DreamWeaver extensively. None of them had some of the features I thought were important for development with CFMX, so I started working on the cfeclipse project. We are slowly creeping towards the point where it's a hands down winner over DW and Homesite in some areas, but there's still a lot of work to be done. As with any editor, individual experiences may differ and as I said, I'm biased :) Spike Mike Kear wrote: > And with DreamweaverMX too.
