I agree with Sean.  Every situation is different, but I've had great success
letting people with far more design skills than I have create the "look and
feel" of the page in Dreamweaver -- then I edit the code in whatever is
available (my favorite being Edit Plus) to add the PHP functionality.

On my intranet projects, I've even gone so far as encouraging the end users
to develop the pages themselves, showing me how they want to enter the data
and what they expect to be returned.  Once they are happy, I do my part by
modifying their Dreamweaver files to make them actually do something.

That way, I get the best of both worlds.

Just my 2 cents,

KennM

On the contrary...

I use Dreamweaver for layouts and then use either it's integrated editor
for PHP or fire it up in Textpad. No code reofmatting and it works
seamlessly.

www.allaire.com and theirs HOMESITE editor. In my opinion this is the
best editor and my favourite.
So try it. Do not try any WYSIWYG editors. Generating plain code is
the best.
