Every coder I know uses it, sure you could use notepad and be "kewl" but the pretty colours help in dw.

I'm sorry for the minor derail, but please. Coder? HTML?

HTML/CSS/JavaScript/ASP/CF/PHP etc...

One good thing with DW is inbuilt browser checks.

you could use a content management system - hostnuke. Or a really easy option is if you own a Mac, you can use iweb which is a drag and drop system with several templates you just add content. You can host them on anyones servers but on apples servers you get a few extras. example of this is www.fduk.info my previous schools site. Or you can get one built for a relatively cheap price. contact daydreamprint in my sig they do my printing etc but also produce and host websites. It all depends on what you want to achieve. Do you want clients to purchase their images online? or is it just somewhere for perspective clients go to look at what you can do?

ASP/PHP from that list I'll give you. The others?

I can write any of those in Eclipse and have inbuilt browser checks. Hell, I can do it in vi & have a hotkey to launch a browser if needed.

I'm obviously just old skool.

Indeedy, but there is nothing inherently wrong with dreamweaver.

Microsoft Front Page on the other hand

I wasn't commenting on the choice of application. It was the label of "coder" that concerned me.
