Dreamweaver vs. its competition

[Randy5]

Is Dreamweaver still the leading web-design software? Is it the easiest to learn how to use?

I'm not sure.

I was heavily into HomeSite as a code editor. I loved it. However, Adobe decided to kill it. When I contacted Adobe, they said that all of the features of HomeSite were being moved into Dreamweaver. It wasn't until I bought the full version of Dreamweaver that I found out that this wasn't true. Almost none of HomeSite's code-editing features were migrated into Dreamweaver. So Dreamweaver still remains a WYSIWYG editor. Nothing more.

I use Dreamweaver mostly, but sometimes need to clean code and will use BBEdit for it.
