Can’t find an OP, so the hamsters must have been here.

Dreamweaver from Macromedia is good. Very good. More info [here.](http://www.macromedia.com/software/dreamweaver/)

Also, it works really well with shockwave, flash, freehand… I suggest you look into it.

For basic \*.html editing, Adobe GoLive is very solid. Been using it for several years now.

I’m going to close this copy. Please feel free to open a new thread in the appropriate forum.
