Why it is so hard to play with html in visual studio

Hi guys,
First of all thanks, you guys are super helpful. I always wanted to become a coder, now i see this dream coming to reality with help of you guys.
 
Now, i am learning asp.net with the help of local teacher. We are going to create a new website.
 
Now, we "open a new website", created a master page.
 
However, editing this template in visual studio is nightmare.
 
You delete something and something else gets spaced out. However, when you see everything in webbrowser, everything comes out allright.
 
Is there a better way to do this? I am using 2010 VS.
 
1) Should i use dreamweaver first. design everything first and than, move to visual studio?
 
How you guys do it?
 
Thanks
