ColdFusion developers have long enjoyed the benefits of Remote Development Services (RDS)??”and now,
RDS connectivity is available in Dreamweaver. Through RDS, teams of developers can work on the same site
stored on a remote server. Moreover, you can connect directly to an RDS server without creating a site.
Extensible architecture also underlies Dreamweaver??™s site reporting facility. Dreamweaver ships with the
capability to generate reports on usability issues (such as missing Alt text) or workflow concerns (such as
who has what files checked out). Users can also develop custom reports on a project-by-project basis.
The Dreamweaver Interface
When creating a Web page, Webmasters do two things repeatedly: They insert an element??”whether text,
image, or layer??”and then they modify it. Dreamweaver excels at such Web page creation. The
Dreamweaver workspace combines a series of windows, panels, and inspectors to make the process as fluid
as possible, thereby speeding up the Webmaster??™s work.
Easy text entry
Although much of the World Wide Web??™s glitz comes from multimedia elements such as images and sound,
Web pages are primarily a text-based medium. Dreamweaver recognizes this and makes the text cursor the
default tool. To add text, just click in Dreamweaver??™s main workspace??”the Document window??”and start
typing.
