The Dreamweaver CS5 Software from Adobe is a powerful web editor for Windows that supports HTML, CSS, and PHP. Dreamweaver allows you to create web pages using a powerful visual editor, or by directly editing code. It is compatible with many popular content management systems, including WordPress, Joomla!, and Drupal.
Dreamweaver features tools that will help you write cleaner code, whether it be straight HTML, JavaScript, or Ajax. You'll be able to add video in the FLV format to web projects with ease. You'll also have access to a wealth of training and community tools, including user forums, to help you hone your web creation skills.
To be eligible for this upgrade you must own Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 or CS4, or Macromedia Dreamweaver 8.
