Intro To The New Dreamweaver 8 By: Jason Cooper     On August 8 2005, Macromedia announced it's release of Macromedia Studio 8. This was an improvement of it's already popular MX2004 Version. I have been using the new Dreamweaver 8 for the last few weeks and have observed noticeable improvements that I will describe here. The first improvement that i noticed was the new top and side rulers. This is very helpful in lining up table and layers accurately. Also, If you like to work with the code, Dreamweaver has a new feature where you can compress a certain line of code and hide it on the left hand pane. This allows you to hide code that you are not working with, and open it up at anytime if you decide to play with it. One of the best new features is actually something I had a small gripe with in MX2004. In the previous version, when updating your site with the server, you had to sit there and wait while it uploads all your files. The new version fixes this. In Version 8, you can upload your entire site, AND continue working while your files upload in the background. This is a great new feature. A couple of other new features and improvements worth noting are: 1. The new CSS Panel - Improved editing and working with your .css styles. 2. The ability to zoom in and out of your webpage. 3. A new coding toolbar If you haven't already, I would recommend getting the new version of Macromedia Dreamweaver 8. You won't be disappointed. Dreamweaver comes with some great tutorials as well. If you're not familiar with the program, I would suggest going through all the tutorials.
