Hi Joshua,
Why not ask this question on the MacroMedia news groups. I'm 100% sure they have the right answer for you (I'm not sure but it might have to do with "design time" style sheets... or something like that :)

Hi,
We're developing a website from a layout a client purchased from some online layout service (of course, .PSD and table-based HTML layout only), and they were going to manage their content using Dreamweaver template files... but when we turned the layout to something CSS-based it went and made a horrible mess of the layout in Dreamweaver, to the point where it's not only unlike the appearance of the site in the browser, but completely uneditable.
http://www.joahua.com/blog/2005/05/07/wysiwtf has screenshots in Firefox and Dreamweaver respectively...
Has anyone else seen this kind of mess before? Aside from "browser testing" Dreamweaver as though it were another user agent, is there anything that can be easily done to fix it?
We're probably just going to use a content management system instead, but it's a bit frustrating...
Kind Regards, Joshua Street
