What you design in the Dreamweaver 'document window' will be coded and placed in the document, so that the browser will display the page just as you see it in your Dreamweaver window. Making it a perfect choice for anyone without any web development experience. Dreamweaver has a larger array of features and functions, including some site management functions.
