Dreamweaver MX 2004 delivers powerful,
standards-based controls to ensure high quality design. A
design environment built around Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
enables faster and more efficient development of
clean-coded, professional sites.
Use a world-class
design and code editor in one tool. Dive right into
source code, manipulate pixel-perfect designs in Design
view, or do a little of both. With a customizable user
interface, you can work the way you need to.
Build sophisticated, standards-based sites with
rich CSS support. Design and render intricate CSS-based
layouts and designs more easily and precisely that ever
before. Save time with rich tools that allow for quick
selection and control of page and site wide style
properties.
Improve end-user experience with a
dynamic cross-browser validation feature that automatically
checks tags and CSS rules for compatibility across all the
leading browsers.
Save time with a built-in graphics editor.
Crop, resize, and make minor edits without leaving
Dreamweaver by using built-in Macromedia Fireworks
technology.
Create better user interfaces without
constant browser checks with a Live Data View that allows
applications developers to see live server-side data while
in design mode.
Powerful and open integration
Dreamweaver MX 2004 is open and extensible with the
products and technologies you use, giving you the freedom
and flexibility to choose the technology that works best for
you – today, and in the future.
Use one integrated development environment
to develop HTML, XHTML, XML, ASP, ASP.NET, JSP, PHP, and
Macromedia ColdFusion websites. Customize and extend the
development environment with more than 800 free extensions
available through the Macromedia Exchange for Dreamweaver.
Leverage Secure FTP to fully encrypt all
file transfers and prevent unauthorized access to your data,
file contents, usernames, and passwords.
Seamlessly integrate external files and code.
Copy and paste from Microsoft Word and Excel documents
directly into Dreamweaver while preserving fonts, colors,
and CSS styles. Leverage full Unicode support to use,
render, and save any font and encoding supported by the
operating system, including double-byte character sets.
Enhance productivity with tighter
integration with Macromedia Flash, Fireworks, and other
design and development tools in the Macromedia Studio MX
2004 suite.
Create accessible websites to comply
with U.S. law and international standards, using
compliance-checking features for pages and sites, in-product
reference content, and an active authoring mode for
accessibility.
Streamlined development
Find what you need fast, increasing your performance,
productivity, and quality of work. Leverage the
professional-quality, pre-built layouts and code in
Dreamweaver to get sites and applications up and running
quickly.
Manage the basics better with improved
table editing tools, a robust more reliable FTP client, an
updated insert bar that provides a customizable ‘favorites’
area, and a streamlined file editing process that speeds up
file downloads and replacements.
Code more efficiently with time-saving
enhancements like right click coding tools, revamped find
and replace, and a Property inspector that enables quick,
comprehensive property editing.
Find things faster with an improved user
interface that maximizes the usable workspace, shows context
and focus more clearly, and is highly approachable and
logical. A new start screen provides quick access to
recently used files and tutorial resources.
Jumpstart design and production using
professional-quality, pre-built layouts and code, including
site structures, forms, accessible templates, and JavaScript
functions for client-side interactivity. Create new sites
with a Site Setup Wizard and enhance team content
collaboration with support of Macromedia Contribute.
