Is DreamWeaver right for me?

I am looking for a good and quick way to develop web pages. My experience is with ASP and back end programming. I have used HomeSite, but would like a simpler way to develop rich client side functions (rollovers, menus, etc). Is DreemWeaver a good candidate to work with Active Server Pages? Also I have heard that DW along with othe WYSIWYG editors do mysterious things to your HTML code.
Thanks
 
I think everyone agrees (even those who use it) that Visual Interdev sucks. But it does a good job with ASP code. If you want a tool that writes nice code for your site, but doesn't have quite as good integration with IIS, then Dreamweaver is for you.

Hello efrost2!

I would suggest you DreamWeaver UltraDev because it's a database driven version of DreamWeaver. It has a lot of features that let you automaticly connect to a database and many other things.

However I personally don't use those features (I write all ASP code by hand) but anyway I use DW UD because it very good highlights the code and is the best HTML editor on the Net!

Good Luck!
