When I tested the Public Beta, all my predone pages that had commented text
would end up getting screwed up because Dreamweaver would make it so
comments would end in --!> and that would technically make it so the
comment wasn't closed, thereby effectively commenting out all following
code. I don't know if the bug has been fixed.

I went to a seminar in Boston this past winter on Dreamweaver and it was
quite a cool exhibition. Dreamweaver seems to pack a tremendous punch for
its price (I think about $400). More info at http://www.dreamweaver.com.

Hope that helps a little.
