I'v used both of them and I recommend Macromedia Dreamweaver. It's much easier to learn and use.

Ya I recommend DreamWeaver also, it's all a matter of opinion though. Most web design programs basically do the same thing, they have a design view, the code view, split, connection to site, and some even have intellisense. But I prefer DreamWeaver.

I personally prefer Adobe Dreamweaver. The user interface is very well thought out. If you are new to both programs, you can't go wrong with Dreamweaver.

Another 'Yay' for DreamWeaver. DW gets a lot of flack, but I think CS4 has completely knocked most other site development tools out of the park. It has a great array of features that I used on a day-to-day basis. Of course, it does have it's set backs.

re: Web designing


It depends on what technology you want to adopt. There is a wide range of IDEs available in the market. I would list out a few that you may use when you a particular technology

HTML : One Site 2009 (free), MS Front Page
PHP : Zend Studio, Komodo , Adobe Dreamweaver
Perl : Komodo
CFM : Adobe Dreamweaver
ASP : Visual Studio, Visual Web Developer Express (You may use sliverlight plugins too in these tools)

Hope you have a good idea, before you walk into the store...
