Macromedia has also added new API calls to increase the extensibility of Dream weaver. Fusion improves its view The best new feature in Fusion 5.0 is the HTML source view, which features a nice document map pane that let us view the hierarchical layout of the page content. Fusion has added an embedded browser preview, which allowed us to check how a page would look without having to launch a separate browser window. The site management capabilities in Fusion are excellent, featuring the best site layout map of any of the products we've tested. However, to give Fusion 5.0 the team editing features found in Dream weaver, a buyer must pay to add NetObjects' Authoring Server.
Color coding is used in the site map to quickly identify content in the site.
We could also create a new site by having Fusion spider through the site and copy it locally. HotMetal Pro still the choice of code hogs HotMetal Pro 6.0 has fewer new features than the other products tested but remains the best choice for developers who prefer to work in source code. The product also now includes a built-in feature for creating simple buttons. HotMetal has solid capabilities for site management, although it lacks the team editing features found in Dreamweaver. The product uses a hyperbolic map for showing site structure, which provides much more information than the simple map in Dreamweaver.
