Default I need Someones opinion (Help) - 11-19-2003 , 03:24 PM






Hey All,

I have a question...
Which do you think is better?

-Dreamweaver 4 with it's famous F12 problem..(How many times have you lost your work cause of the F12?)

OR

-DreamWeaver MX...

I will be changing my software to the DW MX.
Is MX better than DW4 or dose it have the same crappy problems
like the F12 problem.(If there are additional problems please let me know.)

Let me know guys, what do you think is best.

Oh ya, when I,and if I switch to MX will the pages I made in 4 still be fine.(I guess so but I would like someones opinion.

Thanks
Brent

In the beginning, I was quite reluctant to move to MX. It was new and
strange and I didn't like it. I played with MX for a little bit, but
ultimately decided to move back to 4.0.

After migrating to XHTML and CSS, I decided to give MX another try. I'd
never go back. MX has much better CSS and XHTML support, along with a sweet
UI. I like that when I am hard coding, it closes my tags and gives code
hints (typing va for value then hitting tab). It saves a lot of time. It
also outlines exactly what bits and peices of code are wrapped in ColdFusion
tags.

Has everything from 4.0 and more. Like I said earlier, I'd never go back.

You do realize that DWMX might only be available via online retailers that
have leftover stock (or the eBay way which I don't think I could recommend).
The new version is DWMX 2004.
