Still using Dreamweaver CS3?

If you still use Dreamweaver CS3, upgrading to Dreamweaver CS5.5 also gives you the chance to 
catch up on all the great features added in Dreamweaver CS4. These include:

•  Live View and Live Code. Design your web pages under real-world browser conditions with  

Live View while retaining direct access to the code. Code changes are reflected in the rendered 
display. Live Code enables you to see the generated source code as a browser would, including 
dynamic content or code changes as a result of JavaScript. The Freeze JavaScript command lets 
you freeze the state of the page to more easily style complex interface elements.

•  New user interface. Work faster and smarter across Adobe Creative Suite components with  

a shared user interface design. Use the Workspace Switcher to quickly toggle from one work 
environment to the next. 

•  Fast image updating with Smart Objects. Insert Adobe Photoshop (PSD) files as Smart Objects 

in Dreamweaver, and then update the images with one click whenever the original files change—
no more need to resave and reinsert images. Images are automatically web-optimized in your 
preferred HTML-friendly format.

•  Convenient access to the code and CSS styles you need. Choose any file in the Related Files 

toolbar to simultaneously see its source in Code view and the parent page in Design view. Quickly 
create CSS rules and control their specificity with the redesigned New CSS Rule dialog box. Use 
Code Navigator to quickly access CSS source code that affects your current selection.
