I have a growing website of about 200 pages (sig link #2) and am considering redesigning it in Mac's iWeb application? Has any of you had any success with the Mac iWeb? Will it handle a website of 200+ pages and a hierarchy of pages that goes three deep? I'm told that in iWeb you cannot add meta tags. Is that true? If so, that would be a deal buster. Thanks for any comments. P.S. The reason I'm even thinking of changing applications is this: My website is currently on my iMac G5 (non-Intel), using Freeway Express 3.5 for Mac. My newer computer is an Intel-based Macbook Pro, and even the upgraded version 4 software is not working on my Intel-based Macbook Pro.
I've known a few people that use iWeb but, from what they have told me, it seems like it was built more toward websites that are more simplified in content and presentation. I am almost sure that iWeb is not really meant to run with databases and languages that communicate with databases (PHP/MySQL). I don't know what languages you're using to run your website but for a webpage of over 200 pages, I wouldn't put it past you to run without some sort of database behind it all and a web language like PHP to make everything way smoother for the sake of your own sanity. I've seen some pretty cool designs come out of iWeb but nothing to make me choose it over doing raw code (HTML, PHP, CSS, Etc.) with custom photoshopped elements with an application like Dreamweaver or Textwrangler, and integrating it with a MySQL database or two. However... I am also a web developer (partially) =D Anyway, that's just my two cents - I apologize if I didn't address your question in the way that you were intending - Either way, I hope this post helps you in one way or another!
