it is available for both mac and win. it is not a css editor only but a 
whole powerful website tool with sitemanagement, integration with other 
adobe application, etc.

with GoLive's CS new CSS editor and live preview you can work WYSIWYG 
in realtime.

(though as always 'buggy browser' checks and browser hacks still have 
to done manually...
but here GoLive lets you store all sort of library items to enhance 
your workflow as well

GoLive's nice find&replace options let me quickly replace all sorts of 
elements and classes and spans I had on a whole site (done few years 
ago, so even some spare fonts tags were fliyng around in there...)

you can e.g. search for span elements with certain value (e.g. span 
class="textvariant1") and turn it all in p tags (p class=" 
textvariant1". it will also change the closing tags accordingly. but 
leave all your other span tags like span class="textvariant2" intact.

you can can search for all bits of elements and either replace them all 
or only keep the content or change the value only or add sth in from 
e.g. #picturebox .myclass

it's really handy.

there are even extensions available that let you make a record of all 
css or classes that are in a site. so no leftovers of some editing done 
years ago (and e.g. class that is no longer mentionend in any 
stylesheet, but still sits in your code) will be overlooked.



kind regards,

beate de nijs
