[abracadabra1]

just looking something to make a nice webpage for a small business that i'm doing to make some money on the side.

IMHO, Frontpage. Easy and all you have to is click

dreamweaver if you got the cash... frontpage is alright if youa re starting out, and dont have the cash out of pocket

Notepad

 

[KameLeon]

Try a trial version of Allaire Homesite. It's a very nice prog.
Ignore peeps who reccomended frontpage or dreamweaver..
i don't think they read the part about "for newbies".
and to think about how much they cost..

 

[dcpsoguy]

Dreamweaver
Microsoft Frontpage

 

[abracadabra1]

i'm not too worried about dishing out some cash for the proggie since i already have dreamweaver 4 and frontpage...just want to know which is best to use.

 

[Pastore]

learn dreamweaver... it i more challenging to learn than frontpage, but in the future you will be glad you did... trust me...

I think good old notepad IMO, I learned on Frontpage and have been kicking myself ever since. You will be much happier if you learn how to really do it.

[abracadabra1]

Fireworks in no alternative to a real web program.

Personally, I use Adobe GoLive with Photoshop and LiveMotion

 

[slicksilver]

Dreamweaver is the best IMO.......I've started with FP which is the biggest mistake I ever did in life......it's actually wise to create pages in notepad......and when you are through the basics cat dreamweaver and you wont regret it

I prefer VI or Pico for making web pages. If you are feeling hardcore, you could try using OCR software.

I used Notepad till I learned HTML well enough, then went to Dreamweaver. Still gotta get DW4, but oh well. Also use Photoshop/PSP6 instead of Fireworks though.

 

[Deicide]

If your just starting out, then Frontpage is a good idea, since it has templates and wizards and such. When you get the hang of that and HTML, then you should move to Dreamweaver/Ultradev..

If you are serious about this start out with notepad. Learn the basics. Play around with tables and frames and all sorts of cool stuff until you have a pretty good understanding of it. After that move to a wysiwyg editor(I use dreamweaver). Your understanding of html will allow you to tweak the output of the wysiwyg editor.
