Dreamweaver?

[chipshot]

I read somewhere (don't remember where) that it's not a good idea to use dreamweaver to edit files is that true, and why?

Thank You

I have been using dreamweaver for years and built many PHP/MySQL databased run websites and even my own shopping carts its always been fine for me.

 

I have also always used to to edit / update the osCommerce cart.

 

Having said that I dont use any of dreamweavers functions and built in options as I hand code everything including the HTML & CSS etc so maybe some of the built in functions that make dreamweaver easy for people who dont know alot about programming to use cause problems I dont know as I hand coded from the start as I thought it would be the better way to learn.

 

But if you do all your own coding then dreamweaver is fine, if you dont i aint sure

Thanks that makes life much easier. I also don't use any of the functions from dreamweaver to code anything in osc, mostly just as a text editor. I just thought dreamwever may have done something to my code that I don't know about before I uploaded to my site. Because I can't log into my Admin.

I would not however use it to upload files. Its FTP client has a reputation for being unstable, and often uploads incomplete files.
