Studio MX

Studio MX from Macromedia is an integrated suite of development tools for creating Internet applications. For the first time all members of a design team, from designers to developers and programmers, can work within one environment to create and maintain any website whether it's built using HTML, XHTML, XML, web services, ColdFusion, ASP.NET, ASP, JSP, or PHP.

Studio MX offers a visual environment as well as a coding environment. Developers can use familiar tools to get the job done and experiment with new tools, all within one environment. Hard core developers will enjoy the coding environment, which gives them complete control over their code and lets them integrate various technologies.

• Dreamweaver MX
• Flash MX
• Fireworks MX
• Freehand 10
