Browse All TopicsHi,
I've been coming across ads that invite you to use Dreamweaver to develop websites. All I know of Dreamweaver is that it's produced by Adobe and that Adobe is known for producing solid products. BUT:
Would it be a substitute for ASP.NET or JavaScript...or does it work with them and/or complement them...?
Does it have the tools to connect to databases....?
What are its strengths and weaknesses?
In short, would it be worth the trouble to learn it, or is it better to invest the time in advancing my studies of ASP.NET and maybe learn some thing like JavaScript....?
Please advise

As leakim said, Dreamweaver is not a framework or server side technology, it is a web design software and HTML editor. In Dreamweaver you can edit your Active Server Pages and the javascript code in these pages.
Dreaweaver will help you to preview your pages, to build and edit the html code easier, etc.

Hello tariganis,
Dreamweaver is not a language but an advanced web language editor. You can create asp, php, javascript, css, jsp, actionscript, xml, ...
Language from Adobe are Coldfusion and ActionScript.
ASP.NET code run only on Microsoft OS (Framework is needed) but ActionScript on a lot of OS plateform.
Regards.
