Golive and WO work together very nicely. Golive is a far superior HTML
Layout tool than WOBuilder. And afaik Apple once enxplicitely stated that
they don't want to make WOBuilder competing with those tools like Golive
that focus on HTML layout mainly.

Golive (at least in the Professional edition) comes with a WO plug-in that
can handle the .wo directory structure, that is, it parses and generates
your .wod to let you bind the things in there to your dynamic elements in
.html.

With the WO plug-in you get another palette Tab that contains all types of
dynamic elements that you can place in your HTML layout in the Golive style
and of which you can edit the properties much like in WOBuilders inspector
- although the interface works somewhat different.

Unfortunately Golive doesn't offer you the handy "point-and-shoot"
behaviour for binding methods and instances from your code to dynamic
elements like you are used to in WOBuilder.

Would it be that difficult to parse the code file accordingly?

I wonder if Adobe and Apple are interested in providing this functionality
for future versions through joined efford. I once sent a request for this
feature to Golive but never got back an answer.
