If you want to work in the web industry you need to do one of the following:

Just do design and hire developers to write HTML/CSS/JavaScript and the rest. This is a very specialized role and your portfolio will have to be stellar. You won't be able to sell yourself as a web designer, though.

or

Learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to be a front-end developer. Learn programming languages to be a programmer.

Either way, forget Dreamweaver unless you're using Code View. No professional uses it for anything but Code View. Notepad++ (Windows) is nice because it does syntax highlighting, code folding, and so on. It's also $400 cheaper (as in free).

How do you know if someone codes well if you don't know what good code looks like?
