I work as a web manager for a smallish nonprofit.  Though I'm the primary
keeper of the site, there are a number of others in the org that edit it.
Dreamweaver is the program that everyone's familiar with, so that's what we
use.

In my spare time, I've been redesigning the homepage with CSS - I want so
badly to switch from our table based layout to something that I can actually
understand.  All of my redrafting has been done by handcoding.  I didn't
think twice about the fact that it looked like crud in Dreamweaver MX, as
I'm aware that its support for CSS is extremely weak.

Well, I finished a draft last night, and having heard that Dreamweaver 8 had
far stronger CSS support, I started getting excited.  If Dreamweaver 8 made
my redraft editable in design mode, maybe I could sell this to everyone else
who works on our site.

I downloaded the trial version of Dreamweaver 8 and.....no dice.  The page
is every bit as fractured in design mode in 8 as it was in MX.

Is all hope lost?  I won't be able to get approval for reworking our website
with a CSS layout unless there's some program out there that would let
people make simple WYSIWYG edits.  Is there another editor out there that
might work?  Is there a setting in Dreamweaver that I'm just missing?  Or am
I just SOL?

Thanks for your help!

Matt
