Hello

Then I would Frontpage. It really isn't *that* bad. I must admit I don't use it, I use Dreamweaver but only because I like to see / alter the code and people pay me to create the sites.

Hi Steve, you can see & alter the code in FP. I've only used FP2000 and FP2003 so don't know all about all the versions, but as I mentioned before, FP 2003 <plus presumably any newer versions> have adopted some ideas from DW. I mentioned the template feature and there are tabs at the bottom of the work area for showing the page as - design/split/code.

I started with FP and now use both FP & DW. The new community site launched recently <see sig> was done in DW. While I agree with the points about HTML <it helps if you can twiddle with bits if need be> and the bit about database-driven sites using asp & php, some people just want a quick'n'basic site. Horses for courses.
