Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox

Adobe® Dreamweaver® Developer Toolbox is a set of Dreamweaver server behaviors and commands for creating dynamic web applications using PHP, Adobe ColdFusion®, and ASP VBScript server scripting technologies. This Dreamweaver extension helps web developers create membership-based websites, portals, blogs, and image galleries, as well as content management systems, CRM back-ends, and other web-based solutions without requiring advanced programming knowledge.

Dreamweaver integration

  • Rapid application development - Save hours of manual coding with built-in features for creating HTML forms, nested repeated regions, and dynamic lists and forms, and for visually editing recordsets. Keep up with your customers' demands and update your site pages in just a few clicks.
  • Wizard-like interfaces - Want to build a sophisticated HTML form? No problem — just click through the wizard steps and you can be done in less than a minute. Each interface has context-sensitive tips that help you work though its steps faster and more effectively.
  • User interface persistence - Tired of entering the same information over and over? Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox helps minimize the risk of errors and cuts out repetitive typing by remembering your interface selections, such us tables, columns, types, properties, and labels. The next time you use the same interface, all the information will be prefilled.

Database Management

  • Dynamic lists and forms for website administration - Make sure your site is up-to-date by using the dynamic lists and forms. Insert, update, and delete content or manage business logic from a single page. Use search and sorting capabilities to easily manage a large number of records.
  • Upload files and images - Build image galleries and file management systems, and use database tables to store and manage file names and locations. Resize pictures to fit your page design, create and display thumbnails, or limit the image size.
  • Manage database information in your browser - Manage database content by using dynamic HTML lists and forms. Insert, update, and delete content or manage business logic directly from the web browser. Benefit from advanced form validation and error-handling capabilities to ensure data integrity is preserved.

Rich Internet Applications

  • Client-side form validation - Validate user input directly in the browser and avoid page reloading to see if the data is correct. The JavaScript form validation is backed up by a complex server-side validation module that helps prevent incorrect information from being saved or entered.
  • HTML form widgets - Enhance your dynamic HTML forms to provide the best possible user experience by including text fields with custom masks, cascading menus, editable drop-down menus, date pickers, and other on-the-fly client-side elements and validation widgets.
  • Dynamic Spry datasets - Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox helps customers export standard Dreamweaver recordsets in XML format and use them to create dynamic Spry XML datasets.

CSS Skins for a Custom Look

  • Fresh interfaces and CSS customizable skins - Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox offers revolutionary skin support that blends right in with the look and feel of your website. Changing the skin of your dynamic lists and forms is performed in a single move from a centralized interface and takes effect in all your pages.
  • Multi-browser compatibility - Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox allows you to comply with all your customers' needs and configurations. The generated code runs on all major browsers, covering a broad range of possible configurations. No matter what your client is using to view the website, the result will be consistent.
