Comments on: What’s wrong with Dreamweaver’s Server Behaviors? http://www.killersites.com/magazine/2008/whats-wrong-dreamweavers-server-behaviors/ Web Design News, Articles and Tutorials Thu, 07 Jan 2010 18:27:37 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.5 By: Raimonds http://www.killersites.com/magazine/2008/whats-wrong-dreamweavers-server-behaviors/comment-page-1/#comment-591 Thu, 07 Jan 2010 18:27:37 +0000 http://www.killersites.com/magazine/?p=16#comment-591 Hi guys,
intresting to read,
I say that hand writting is the best way. once you are used to use code you just write it. Like I’m writing now.

Everybidy has his own way to work.

Dreamweaver behaviors do support PHP. You just have to select PHP as your server model – this is an option that you set in Dreamweaver.

That said, the behaviors are kind of fragile and beyond simple stuff, you are much better off learning basic php yourself .. it isn’t that hard. Check it out:

I was a beta tester on Dreamweaver CS4 and even Adobe said that they will be revamping the behaviors part in the next release.

My web hosting site says that it does not support asp and cold fusion. php is fine. I need to find out what code DW server behaviors write. Or if I can specify just php. I am really against any languages like asp that works only on Microsoft servers.

ADDT gave me hope to be a web developer.It still ranks the best because i have bought virtually all the extensions that are on the internet. I hope adobe changes the decision.

But I can tell you that CS4 has some really nice features and it just … flows well.

I still use MX Kollection, too — and DW 8. Once I realized that the new versions of DW wouldn’t use my extensions, I made the decision not to upgrade anymore, which was a sad sad day, as I have faithfully used nearly every version of this product ever, from its inception back in what, ’97, was it? In the beginning there were no server behaviors, that functionality was in a separate version of the product. I have always upgraded before, but when Adobe bought Macromedia, I already knew that the product would go to crap, but then, THEN, when they bought Interakt and all operations ceased, I just about DIED.

We need to rise up and convince Adobe to put the whole ADDT thing up for open-source!!!! Including the old KTML4 editor, which I still use.

In fact, I still use ALL of my Interakt products, happily, every chance I can, because as mentioned, it takes years to build up a collection of functionality like that.

This great extension saved my life. I have developed tons of CMSs and small systems using it and it’s perfect. You are not limited to the stuff included on the library. You can use your own classes and functions to extend your apps if you need. It’s up to you.

I have developed complicated CMS systems in less than one week with it. If I had to code everything by hend it would take an entire year.

I think adobe could transform dreamweaver into a complete visual developement environment. They should integrate ADDT into dreamweaver and develop it further. If they discontinue it, they will be going to the wrong direction.

It’s everything that people needs: a viual development environment for PHP – it doesn’t exists yet and we are almost in 2010, can you belive?
OK, I know Delphi for php, but it’s not the right way to do web development. With dreamweaver and ADDT you control your hmtl, CSS and javascript so you just insert some php data where you want – you are in control.

That’s what I think.

PS: I think adobe should just altered the code generated by the layout view of dreamweaver to CSS instead of tables. It wold be a nice layout builder for CSS.

“I’ve suggested loads of times for example using pre-built components but NO, they have to write their own. ”

I agree, that makes no sense. You should reuse proven code before you start building from scratch.

Textedit is one extreme end of the spectrum and point-and-click Dreamweaver like tools is another.

I try to find the happy medium.

That said, I still think Dreamweaver server behaviors can be used for prototyping and small projects that are one-off type things.

Thanks for posting.

Stefan

They forgot what is praticity in name of some sort of strange ethics.
I’ve suggested loads of times for example using pre-built components but NO, they have to write their own. And then they fall down into a spiral of buggy code 😉 because using an MCV won’t save you from buggy code.
I work in an environment that requires RESULTS, and quickly.
In your article you were referring generically to any external server behaviour you can buy.
I could make you a very long list of stuff that works.
And your worry about “touching the code” is just because you never used them. You can mix safely server behaviours and code.

Enjoy your textedit!

I said in the previous comment, I was not commenting on ADDT because I never used it.
