Dreamweaver = Windows and Mac Eclipse = Linux, Windows & Mac
Adobe - Windows, Mac - So I doubt we'll see any change soon... DAM! Outside of this, unless your making straight plain websites like google. Dreamweaver is the way to go... Take your fireworks layout, cut-it up, do some tricky stuff in dreamweaver, Add your CFas needed though the templates and of course look at your website as it's being built. BAM!!! Properties inspector is fairly good in dreamweaver. I could do without having to use a seperate pannel for CFFORM properties and stuff like that but ourside of this everything you need it right there. Yeah your still coding a bunch, but if you CODE CORECTLY it will show up in dreamweaver. I've seen my fair share of scripts which show some type of closed table crap, where you can't see the correct table layout... Just this table cell where you should see a whole application... It migh work like it is but there must be problems in the code if dreamweaver can't even figure out what your coldfusion is doing inside table cells. I've seen this when people used Coldfusion Studio... Outside of this... I'm about to switch to Eclipse just to go back to linux... On 1/27/06, PINE Phyo Z <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Heh heh...
