Just had to do a bit of a computer overhaul and decided to use the dreamweaver/flash/fireworks 30 day trials having used mx for two years. I've had a ratch around the forum and I'm trying to work out if there are any real benefits for a fairly low level web designer like myself to upgrade. I do almost everything in design view (hangs head in shame) and use layout boxes a lot.
I see the layout boxes have changed to some div tag thing. So far this is not causing any problems but want to know if anyone is having problems.
My biggest bug is that dreamweaver mx in design view shows my sites pretty as they are displayed in Internet Explorer but Firefox looks terrible. I then have to do some juggling around to get some kind of compromise. Is dweaver 8 and cs3 the same? What I seem to be getting now is some sites displaying very differently in design view to what they did in mx.
So apart from any comments on the above and since I am unlikely to be using anything other than static sites for quite some time, should i upgrade or not? Finally, is there much difference between dweaver 8 and cs3? If I can get a cheaper copy of 8 would that be a fair compromise?
