Re: [WSG] Dreamweaver CS3
It has full syntax highlighting but it's real power comes with snippets, code blocks you can program yourself. Dreamweaver also has a Snippets panel with built in snippets and you can easily create your own in whatever category you wish and store them there, whether it be CSS snippets, javascript or server language code snippets. Beyond that, you can create behaviors and commands for javascript code and server behaviors for programming code, either packaging them as an MXP for portability or leave as behaviors for local use. Many users don't realize, but it's extendible out the wazoo.

In fact, I'd recommend against doing so, ... The META tag is needed when serving the page from the hard drive - for example, when the page is saved for viewing later. (The hard drive does not send HTTP headers.) That's a good point that I should have mentioned, and I'm glad you brought it up. However, IMO this need is often overstated. Browsers are pretty good at guessing the encoding when they need to. I wouldn't rely on browsers guessing correctly for public pages, but I think the clutter of having duplicate encoding declarations usually outweighs the benefit. Of course, ideally one looks at one's pages using a local Web server. I think Windows Linux come with one preinstalled and I know that OS X does, so this should be within the reach of most folks.

[WSG] Dreamweaver8
Nancy Gill hi, Where will I get the dl for Dreamweaver8 please? I can't find it at Adobe.I don't really want CS3 because its heavy on CPU, or what things can I take out of CS3? Thanks Nancy!

Re: [WSG] Dreamweaver8
Hi Kate: Adobe doesn't offer downloads of older versions once a newer version has come out. The only way I know to get a 30 day trial at this point is to find a CD with a 30 day trial of it on a Dreamweaver 8 book .. many of them come with CDs that contain sample files and a trial of the program. Of course, after the 30 days, the upgrade would be to CS3 so then you would be back where you started. Perhaps you could also find one on EBay or in a 3rd party store on clearance .. be careful especially with the former that it's not a bootlegged copy but comes with a valid serial. AFAIK, those are about the only options since DW8 is a version and a half behind.

Re: [WSG] Dreamweaver8
Yeah, you can get Dreamweaver 8 on Ebay, but I couldn't find any legal links for download. To be honest, I wouldn't use Dreamweaver, I use Aptana Studio and from the coding side it works great and it's free.

Re: [WSG] Dreamweaver8
Thanks Nancy, I do have some Web mags I bought last year there should be one on there as the mag is Dreamweaver monthly or was. I was looking on the Web and found this lol don't know who it was - no name: The latest version of Dreamweaver - Dreamweaver 8 - has been launched today. I was lucky enough to be involved with the Beta and so have been working with this new version for several months. So, is it worth the upgrade? http://www.rachelandrew.co.uk/archives/2005/09/13/dreamweaver-8/ Oh wait Nancy..could be Drew M??? Now, where did I put those mags :D Thanks Nancy!

Hi Krystian, Ebay lol yes, I looked there today but somehow i'm never sure if the software would be all there when you bought it. I'll look at your Aptana Studio so thanks for that.

RE: [WSG] Dreamweaver8
Hi, I would recommend Aptana Studio as well for hand coding. I just downloaded it and so far its great. Although one thing I miss about dreamweaver is that you can do a 'search all' and get a list of all instances of the thing you are searching for rather than cycling through a 'find...find...find...' list. So far it's the only program I've used that does that and I really notice not having it.
