Very true!  It doesn't like some php stuff and will conveniently throw in
extra characters to suit its needs - resulting in a needle/haystack when the
compiler pukes.  I've found the Zend IDE much better (although it lacks the
DW HTML tools).

Be careful about relying too much on the code generated by DreamWeaver. It's
gotten me in to TONS of trouble! I've rewritten the vast majority of the
code it generates.
