One other feature that Dreamweaver has is a function that cleans up Front Page and Word html. What it does is run through a page very similarly to a spell checker and then launches a browser to give its very detailed report on a page's accessibility. Dreamweaver is part of the Fireworks and Flash suite, so interactive and graphical representations are a part of their stock and trade. on 5/25/01 9:24 PM, Ann Parsons at [log in to unmask] wrote: > Hi all, > > Anne Pemberton sent me this message and wanted it posted here.
