    I tried FrontPage one time... I find it much easier to make websites by hand than using FrontPage, it really confuses me.

    How much does it cost to buy dreamweaver? Is it easy to learn? Can I use my current FrontPage pages to dreamweaver?

    Thanks!

    Forget about Dreamweaver. It costs $600 and frankly isn't worth it. Spend some time at your local library to pick up some books on HTML and CSS. I personally recommend Build Your Own Web Site The Right Way Using HTML & CSS by Ian Lloyd. Designing With Web Standards, 2nd Edition by Jeffrey Zeldman and Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, 2nd Edition by Steve Krug are wonderful companions (and are very easy, non-technical books).

    It certainly is better to hand code, though if you need WYSIWYG then dreamweaver is one of the better ones.

    Recently added secure log on to someones site using .Net. They had built their site in frontpage and even I was shocked how bad it was.

    Frontpage file - 4326 lines of HTML and 124kb

    recoded file, same content as above plus a log in box

    hand coded file - 133 lines of HTML and .Net and 8kb
