Well, it was what I had and I got it free after giving Microsoft hell on
their lousy support of their crappy software ;')

How does Dreamweaver handle essential server side stuff like forms
processing? Do you write or borrow your own scripts or does Dreamweaver
autogenerate a perl script and you have to upload to the cgi-bin and
fiddle permissions? It would be nice if they generated php scripts now,
since you don't have to mess with those annoying permissions with php.
