I use FP for professional development and I have never considered FP to be a plaything for anything,
but I do have fun working with it.
When you work with Dreamweaver you are still working with disk-based webs.
The reason for the problem with the DWT under the FP2000/2002 extensions is that these extensions
where created prior to the release of FP2003 so they can not recognize the DWT tags.
