[Ti] OT: DreamWeaver (WAS: Pushing... 867MHz )

[Pedro Vera]

Dreamweaver MX is really frustrating because it has a few features that are absolutely amazing 
and very handy, but it is so godawfully slow that it is painful just to see it load. The HTML view 
is very slow rendering nested tables, and the code view scrolls very slowly. My company paid 
$400 for this thing and honestly I never use it unless I have a huge table and I have to select a 
column from the HTML view to apply a style. The search engine allows you to pick any given tag 
and do stuff to it, which is awesome, and you can save search settings as rudimentary scripts. 
Still, $400 is a hell of a lot of money just to use 5 features.

Oh, there is one thing Barebones has to either ripoff or license off Macromedia: In code view it 
displays a hierarchy of tags along the bottom left of your active window. It shows you all the 
tags that lead to the one the cursor sits at. Click on any of these tags and ALL the contents of 
that given tag are selected. Now imagine a 10,000 line file and you need to select 600 lines, you 
can put a DIV at the start and end, then click once on the DIV in the toolbar and it selects 
everything inside. It blew me away the first time I had to use it.

Thanks,

Pedro Vera
