Dreamweaver 8's Autocomplete

... is just awesome. Closest thing I've seen yet to a truly killer new feature. No longer does it dump the ending tag into the document as soon as you create the starting tag. Rather, when you type </ to close a tag, it looks for the most deeply nested tag that's still opened and writes in the closing tag for it. In my experience, it's been right on the money every time. It's smart enough to look upwards in the nesting tree if everything else is already closed.

Also, it makes singleton tags like <BR> and <HR> XHTML compliant automatically. Very slick.
