Like others, I use Dreamweaver, but only its code view... I don't even
use the Split Code/Design view anymore, because it can't handle CSS
that well. For writing straight code though, DW has a lot of nice
touches... the excellent syntax coloring (REALLY helpful when scanning
through your code), the Autocomplete, and Find/Replace. Also, the
integrated FTP program works brilliantly – Instead of switching to
another program to go upload your files, you just hit Command+Shift+U,
and *bam*, it's up! The one and only problem I have with DW is that it
won't let me upload .htaccess files, but other FTP programs do.

Im a new boy to the discussion group. Pointed in this direction by
Jeffery Zeldman's 'Designing with Web Standards'. I must say Web
Standards has been a 'breathe of fresh air' for me. Its the way
forward, for sure. What Im not so sure about is using a code generator
eg. Dreamweaver. Ive always hand coded my HTML, javascript, ASP,
SQL etc using a text editor (past 4 years). What do people think about
hand coding versus code generators? What percentage of developers
totally hand code, use both, use only code generators? regards Simon
