Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 [OLD VERSION]

Have used this in an older version and in MAC format. This version has a few new enhancements still a great program and recommend it for anyone who wants to create a nice professional looking website. Recommend purchasing a book to get you up and running and to help you use this program especially if you are a first time user. I took an online course which really gave me suggestions for optimum use of this software. This works great with Fireworks, Photoshop.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 is the quintessential gold standard tool for building web sites. It's relatively easy to use, and has many wonderful features. You can do split screen between the "WYSIWYG" view and the code view, or use full screens and switch back and forth easily with the tab menu. Placing your cursor anywhere in the window also places the cursor in the corresponding spot in the other window. Although pricey for some, it's still the all around best tool available in my opinion. Other programs strive to be like Dreamweaver, but don't quite measure up.

I've been using Dreamweaver for several years now. Overall it's a quality product. The only issue I have with it is its FTP connectivity. At times the connectivity is efficient at others it seems to need to reestablish its connection causing downtime. However, this may not be a result of the software itself but rather an ISP issue. In either case, it's probably the best product on the market.

If you are a descent software user, the kind of person who enjoys learning applications, then I recommend Dreamweaver CS3. I used this software to build my first website [...] and I would not have been able to do it without this software. Yes, there are other products but this one allowed me to create a fully functioning website without having had any prior html experience.

The advantages of the upgrade are seemingly endless. Some of the more important features are: better conversion of word docs, copy-and-paste functionality from other programs, and updates to PHP and ASP.net features. We use Dreamweaver CS3 exclusively at [...]. Two thumbs way up!
