The question is bad from the begining.
You can not ask about a website development tool, giving example vs
2008/2010.
The man enroles in a website evelopment diploma so he aims to become
a professional.
So, as a professional, you can not hook up with a specific ide,
because you must develop according to the project you have.
For this reason sometimes you will find yourself working with php with
mysql, other times with asp.net o n vs 2008/2010 or whatever vs is out
on that time.
So you must manage every of them.
Because, if you learn only on VS, you will be forced to use windows
hosting for example, to buy and pay for the development tools and for
the database tools.
Don't tell me that there are express editions, that ones are toys for
children.
As a professional I must know how to manage eclipse for java/php
development, how to manage vs for dotnet/aspnet development, how to
use notepad or other editor to do xhtml/html layouts and so on.
best regards

From what I have read and seen the VS 2008 or VWD 2008 platform and
the Sql Server or Sql Server Express (R2) versions because they are
newer, are the most accessible development platform if you want a
development IDE.
Otherwise some folks develop in a editor like notepad.
There are a bunch of stand-alone editors for building Websites but
I've not used them so can't speak to accessibility.
I would worry that they would try and do things like the VS Designers
but that they would not have the necessary hooks or scripts to make
them work at all.
Also, if they try and do Intellisense they might have that
inaccessible as well.
Newer versions might use WPF or what ever the newer accessibility
hooks for Linux and may not be accessible.
It is my understanding that the Dreamweaver and other software put
out by that compn=any was suppose to be getting more accessible but
I've not used it and don't know anyone who has used it with a screen
reader.
I guess what I am saying is that I have tried a couple of other
things over the past 10 years or so and not found one that has all
the bells and whistles and is accessible as the VS environment. The
2010 version of anything put out by Microsoft is not going to be
nearly as accessible as the 2008 versions since the 2010 versions use
WPF and none of the current screen readers support it very well.
Also, the JAWS scripts for VS will not work properly with 2010 versions.
It is likely your instructor will have you using whatever the class
uses but if not you can either stay with what you know or try
something new - it's up to you in that case.
You could try developing using another IDE and, or, get into stuff
like PHP and MySql using some kind of Website development environment
but I have never looked at any of them.
Others might have some suggestions on either hand-coding everything
using text editors or using another platform like Dreamweaver or some
Linux based system.
Later Marv and good luck:
