And FWIW, IIRC, the statement:

"Dreamweaver *can* create nice looking indented code"

...is highly dependant on which *version* of Dreameweaver is being used. The

statement:

"Dreamweaver MX *can* create nice looking indented code"

I have no argument with. Hell, I've heard that even recent
versions of Frontpage aren't quite as groady as they used
to be*.

Take it easy,
Dan


*IMHO, the entire development team should still be taken out and shot,
for past crimes ("but they're old men!", hear you say "They were only
following orders!" - ah, sod it, I say, shoot'em, anyway. Bill has plenty
more where that lot came from, and he doesn't have to pay their pensions or
healthcare, anymore, either - so it won't matter if one or two survie the
gunshot wounds. The whole argument for Microsoft technologies appears to be
based in how expendable your employees are :).

Yes, I completely agree with that. I should have said Dreamweaver MX and/or Dreamweaver MX 2004.

I have switched to these versions so thoroughly that I have deleted the previous versions from my memory entirely..... ;)

Alright, then.... what does the MX in Dreamweaver MX stand for, then? :)

Actually, my understanding was that any two letter combination -
in which one of the letters was an 'X' - when applied to the end
of a product's name, was a means of signifying that the marketing
department had been crawling all over it, and that there wouldn't
be any discounts for existing owners of previous versions. :)

Certainly, Steve Jobs is doing a good job of convincing us that
the 'X' in OS X is short for TANSTAAFL!
