Providing a high-productivity workspace for designers and developers,
Macromedia Dreamweaver enables organizations to rapidly design, build,
test, and maintain applications that take full advantage of ColdFusion
MX. Dreamweaver combines powerful layout controls for visual page design
with robust code editing, integrated debugging, and complete support
for new ColdFusion language elements and features.
Using the visual features of Dreamweaver, developers new to ColdFusion
can quickly build simple applications and gradually learn more advanced
development concepts. The powerful code editing features in Dreamweaver
and HomeSite
(included with Dreamweaver) make it easy for experienced
developers to deliver advanced applications more quickly and easily.
With Macromedia Flash, you can easily develop Rich Internet Applications
that reduce download times and provide a better user experience. The
Macromedia Flash Remoting service in ColdFusion provides a fast,
secure protocol for passing data from ColdFusion to Macromedia Flash
clients, and integrated debugging in the Macromedia Flash authoring
environment enables developers to easily debug applications from within
their familiar workspace.
Macromedia Flash enables developers to build rich user interfaces
that are portable across browsers and operating systems and compact
enough to be delivered across the Internet. And with the Macromedia
Flash Remoting service in ColdFusion, developers can easily integrate
those clients with back-end data and applications.
