Ken, I have not used DreamWeaver, but my experience with WYSIWIG editors like that is they tend to excrete very bulky, unmanageable code.
I would lay it out in HTML and and then start looking for snippets on the web. For example: http://www.w3schools.com, http://jqueryui.com, http://mootools.net, http://script.aculo.us, etc. There are many options. Have you looked at the Ajax(ProtoType/Scriptaculous) and MooTool Example applications that are part of Wonder? They are a good place to start getting away from straight HTML and making things more dynamic WOnder style.
