I don't think there're any webdesign software as DW for Linux system.
Maybe you can find some by Google.

Yap! all these should do it but it depends on what's your level in web design:can you write code or just used with visual interface?Quanta Plus and Bluefish are very good but you have to code all your pages yourself.NVU is nice but doesn't compare to Dreamweaver but it's free and can do many things;
I don't know if it works but you can try using Wine or Crossover or similar as they've got a windows API clone that runs Win code;or at least you can ask in their forums for help. Try http://www.winehq.com/ |

QUOTE(alexia) Software is different between windows and linux and i think you can not find one software in 2 os becuase interface and api in 2 os is different It depends on how good the programmers who made the software were, or more specifically how well they abstracted the program from the platform. Decent software puts at least one layer between the functionality and the OS APIs so if they port the software and the API's don't exist, they can write new code in the interface layer to fix it up. Irrelevant here, don't try to confuse all the n00bs  (Oh, and there's plenty of examples of web software that's cross-platform. Zend Studio runs on literally anything, Windows, Linux, or Mac OSes and x86, PPC, Alpha, Sparc... nice example of cross-platform software. Dreamweaver runs on OSX and Windows natively, and old versions on WINE. Bluefish runs on anything. N|vu runs on anything.) anyway, if you just want to maintain a website, and you aren't using PHP, n|vu should do an okay job. If you're more advanced and know you way around HTML, get Bluefish. And if you have money to burn and serious skillz0rz, pay for Zend. |

In Linux, we a software called CROSSOVER OFFICE which will run almost any MS Based applications, Dreamweaver is not officially supported but runs flawlessly with a little tweaking on configuration. You can also Install MS Office (upto v2003) and use FRONTPAGE. Flash runs flawlessly too on Linux using Crossover Office.
Thou its not free, its cheaper than windows, and doesn't break your dreamweaver license. |
