DreamWeaver is the Industry Standard

Dreamweaver © from Macromedia is the premier website composer of the industry. With Dreamweaver, you can design to your audience. Samuel's Web is a DW site targeted to browsers 4.0 and above. If you are interested in the programs discussed on this site, statistics say you will be no more than two revisions back from the current Explorer 6.0 and Netscape 6.2. If you had an audience that was not inclined to upgrade their browsers, DW would assure that your HTML will be read by everyone you intended to reach. DW also makes the running of Flash animation and integrating Fireworks designs a snap as they are all from Macromedia. I sometimes opt to use DW to bring in a Flash movie just to have DW write the script so I can copy and paste into FrontPage ©. By using the advanced layout options like layer objects, great flexibility can be realized. Web pages can look more like the print media in the overall layout and not be so dependent on tables for placement of objects. These words are held in a layer that allowed a more balanced placement than tables would have provided. This is a feature that is supported by browsers 3.0 and above.
