Re: [SMARTY] Dreamweaver Users - How do you manage sites?

Hmmm...

I was hoping I could come up with a configuration that would allow my
designers to work with the templates in dreamweaver but it looks like there
are too many obstacles (paths, file types and names, nested templates) that
would make it too hard (ftp, previewing, etc.) for them to use. I've
downloaded all the extensions I could find for Smarty and Dreamweaver but it
looks like there is no way to get a good development environment configured
to allow this. Too bad, Dreamweaver and Smarty seemed like the perfect
solution for me. I was hoping that this would be a common setup for
smarty-dreamweaver users. Anybody else have this setup?

Thanks,
Gary
