Re: DreamWeaver 3.0 vs. DreamWeaver 4.0

File->Open

each gets a new window

Edit->Find and Replace gives you the option of searching source or visible
text, the open file focused or a directory on disk, the entire site (if
you're using DW as a site management utility) or selected files in the
current site.

We hand code a lot (it's a requirement for our coders), but DW is also not a
bad little tool for many occasions.  We've modified ours to produce many
tags in a compliant format (empty elements with " />", tables with
summaries, etc) and use the manager for many small- and mid-sized sites.

I just asked virtually this same question on another list!  :)  (Were you
peeking?  Grin.)  Unfortunately, it DID degrade into a "no-FP" war.  Sigh.
But another question (besides Emily's below) I'd like answered is HOW to
open MULTIPLE files (if possible) in DW4.  (Can it do across the board
changes like Arachnophilia can do in multiple files, and if so, how?)  Can't
find this info in the demo.  Growl.

Hi all:

I have a friend who is using his own a bought-and-paid-for copy of
DreamWeaver 3.0.  Rumor has it that DreamWeaver 4.0 is "significantly"
better.  In your experience, is it -- $149 better?  Or, $180 better with
FireWorks?

Thanks for any input you have.

Oh, and, please, let's not turn this into a discussion of to-DW or
not-to-DW.  This particular individual has settled on DW as one of his
tools of choice.  He cannot be converted to FrontPage or Arachnophobia or
just-plain-text-editing or anything else.  (I've tried...)
