Work with Best Practices
CSS layout visualization
Apply visual aides at design time to
outline CSS layout borders or color CSS
layouts to reveal complex nesting
schemes and improve selection. Click
on the CSS layout for valuable Tooltips,
such as ID and padding and margin and
border settings, to better understand
the elements that are controlling
the design.
Style rendering toolbar
View content the same way end-users
will see it, no matter what the delivery
mechanism, with new support for CSS
media types in Dreamweaver 8. Use
the style rendering toolbar to toggle to
design view and see how it will look in
print, on a handheld, or on a screen.
CSS rendering improvements
Match how complex CSS layouts will
render in most browsers, with
substantial improvements in design
view accuracy. Dreamweaver now fully
supports advanced CSS techniques,
such as overflow, pseudo-elements,
and form elements.
Accessibility: Support for
WCAG/W3C priority 2 checkpoints
In addition to the integrated accessibility
evaluation tool for Section 508 and
WCAG Priority 1 checkpoints,
Dreamweaver now supports both
CSS and accessibility with an updated
evaluation tool that includes WCAG
Priority 2 checkpoints.
Improved WebDAV
WebDAV in Dreamweaver 8 now
supports digest authentication and
SSL for secure file transfer and offers
improved connectivity with a wider array
of servers.
Get More Done
Coding toolbar
The new code toolbar surfaces common
coding operations in a gutter bar along
the side of the coding surface. No more
hunting through menus and panels to
find code snippets. New coding features
include comment/uncomment.
Code editing improvements
Gain greater control over how the tool
hints and completes tags to fit with your
coding style.
Workspace layouts
Customize and save workspace
configurations. Dreamweaver 8 ships
with four different configurations that
are tailored to the needs of designers
and coders. Pick and choose, or easily
build a custom workspace.
Tabbed documents for the Mac®
New document tabs on Mac help
simplify the user interface and make
it easier to select documents.
New starter pages
Get started with web design in a snap.
Beautiful new layouts and designs allow
users to go from installation to full site
in no time flat.
Compare files
Quickly compare files to identify
what has changed, whether it is two
local files, a file on the local and remote,
or two files on the remote server.
Dreamweaver 8 now integrates with
diff utilities on both the Mac and
Windows platforms.
Paste special
Spend less time wrestling content from
email and Microsoft® Word® into formats.
With new pasting options in
Dreamweaver, retain all the source
formatting created in Microsoft Word,
or just take the text and apply the CSS
already attached to the page.
