Blue World Communications Lasso Studio for Dreamweaver 1.5
After installation, you access Lasso commands from within Dreamweaver. Lasso's straightforward LDML tags work with the included server-side application, Lasso Web Data Engine, which controls data flow between a Web server, database, and Web client. (Lasso comes with a Lasso Web server but works with all common Mac server software.)
Lasso functions quite elegantly. The upgraded Lasso Configuration Wizard identifies your database and its records and fields. To create a database search page, you choose fields from the FormBuilder dialog box rather than hand-coding tags. Dreamweaver's Object palette includes several Lasso programming icons for manipulating fields and records. The SiteBuilder function is a bit of a misnomer, though: you'll use Dreamweaver to build sites and SiteBuilder's templates to add search pages to them.
Lasso requires considerably less database experience than other popular Web-database solutions, like Pervasive Software's $495
