Dreamweaver MX2004 and Dreamweaver 8 can be used to create XHTML. If using earlier versions of Dreamweaver (Dreamweaver 4 and Dreamweaver MX), you'll have to hand-edit the code if you want to produce XHTML documents. See the New York Public Library Online Style Guide: XHTML for assistance in hand-editing XHTML. If you do this, however, don't forget to edit the Doctype at the very top of the code (before the <head> tag) to correspond with XHTML. Doctype is shown in the 24 October 2007 Webbie Support session.
