I like Dreamweaver too over others mainly because it
doesn't insert extra code.  Frontpage used to do that as
did other tools I tried.

For example, if I'm making a simple SSI table (like for a
menu or header or footer) Frontpage would insert HTML/HTML
tags "for me" because it assumed I forgot them.
 Dreamweaver never did that, which is why I stick with it.

Stylesheets I normally use templates and they're easy
enough to edit (as is simple HTML) with TextPad or
something similar.  It color codes things for me (even
javascript) which is nice.

try that later.  Of course, you won't have access to some

I have exactly the opportunity to do what you're talking
about this week.  I
suspect I won't be able to devote a ton of time to it,
but I'll let you know
what I find.

I was planning on discussing it with you at DevCon Joe.

Main reason is I just cannot get the idiot thing to
simply import an
existing site and publish it back to the existing
structure.  It insists
on
making up odd folders, ignores the style sheets and
other includes and
generally annoys the hell out of me.

If you are doing it from scratch it seems fine - which
is what all the
instruction (including yours) focuses on.  But that's
not what I need.
