| 338818 | 2005-03-29 05:42:00 | My thought on frontpage? YUK! I reccommend either dreamweaver, or writing the html by hand. good luck... I agree with Hamster. There is another alternative half way between a WYSIWSG editior like Dreamweaver and Notepad: 1. For Windows, HTML Kit (see www.chami.com) This was originally written by the w3c (World Wide Web Consortium) so produces very accurate HTML code. 2. For Linux, Bluefish (see http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/). Both of these products are free. John |

| 338821 | 2005-03-29 08:50:00 | Not my area but, as per other posts, I've read that MS Front page is a real rat when it comes to compliant code and compatibiilty with non-MS products. You probably don't need to spend money on either, plenty of good free stuff out there. |

| 338822 | 2005-03-29 10:20:00 | Depends on how much effort you want to put into it,and how advanced you want your finished work to be. Frontpage has a 3 minute learning curve,Pretty much instant results. Dreamweaver has a less intuitive frontend but will take you a lot futher then Frontpage,and your first few sites will take longer to get done. Horses for courses,I use frontpage because my needs are basic, I like instant,and my finished product is basic. |

| 338823 | 2005-03-29 10:25:00 | Have been using Frontpage 2002 for some time & despite its "Microsoftisms" (like MS Word's own bizarre ideas on formatting & language selection) am a fan. Sure it can butcher a little code (which I try to keep in check by always previewing using a MS alternative such as Firefox) but you can always dive into the code if & when needed & it's simple interface is pretty easy to master if you're familiar with Bill's products. Have heard that more recent versions of Frontpage do a little less butchering of code than previously? | nicisace (7454) | ||
| 338824 | 2005-03-29 10:28:00 | No matter what you people said, I still like MS Frontpage. I am currently using FP 2003, love the preview of HTML while you are WYSIWYG-ing. Cheers :) | Renmoo (66) | ||
| 338825 | 2005-03-29 21:34:00 | Dreamweaver will do it, along with heaps of others. What type of site will you be making? |
