Which one is better for Web design, Visual Studio OR Dreamweaver?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Visual Studio a programming suite? BTW, Dreamweaver kicks ass.

Dreamweaver. Under every circumstance.

I usually try to design outside of Visual Studio, then I import it and start programming.

If you are doing ASP.Net server programming then Visual Studio.

If you are doing jscript/html design then Dreamweaver.

To be honest, Dreamweaver intellisense absolutely blows for an advanced user as it's very frustrating. It has gotten much better in recent releases, but I will still not touch it for my .Net Projects where I can hook in my own controls / tags and drag/drop code blocks etc.

Dreamweaver unless you are using asp.net and then Visual Studio as it is far superior for that.

I said the same thing about VS being up there in that list. I usually do all the code in VS then do the design either in just a notepad doc or if i have to, use Dreamweaver.

Option 3, Expression Web.

Dreamweaver has the typical 'huh' in the interface design. VS is OK, but project starts are not too intuitive. Expression Web has been much easier.

But that is my opinion and I do not do web design except out of necessity.

Expression Studio rocks. The portability between VS.NET and Expression Studio is amazing. I believe there is also a light version - Expression Blend or Web (don't know which one is the lightest).
