When I started out programming in php (my first programming
experience) I thought Dreamweaver was going to be the magic touch. I
had been creating web pages in Dreamweaver for years. I found that it
was harder to try to use the dreamweaver interface for php especially
the sql interface, than to just hand code php. I do use Dreamweaver
to design the css and html parts of my pages, for file uploading and
previewing and to keep some code libraries, but I code the php
directly. Except for setting up the css and html, it hasn't added
much.
I hardly use it for previewing any more anyway, since it is faster to
bookmark the pages I am coding and preview them from a browser. I was
cloning my database on my computer and using it as a testing server
and Dreamweaver was useful for switching between my local and remote
servers, but I even dropped that as it meant keeping both databses up
to date for any active software.
