Well I was browsing the internet and I came across a discussion about Microsoft FrontPage 2003 and Microsoft are getting rid of it and renaming it and adding some features is what they say, and some of the comments were like,
“good never liked the thing!”
“hated it”
ect…
I’m just wondering how come so many people don’t like FrontPage?
they mainly chose Dream weaver, which everyone I hear about does, even my school has it and I’m going to have to learn about the product due to a Subject which involves Web development.
Also i came across this, Microsoft Expressions
So overall what’s the best web development software you use? And why?

some people will insist on writing it all in notepad or some basic html editor but i don't see the point its a waste of time most of the time .. as long as you have a good knowledge of html (you'll still have to do a fair bit of fucking around with the code in dreamweaver a lot of the time) its easy enough
i prefer dreamweaver over frontpage, its a bit more complicated at the start but its worth it
make your sodding mind up.
Thats the thing i have dreamweaver and tryed to play with it but im completely lost!
So im looking around on Amazon for books on the basics for Dreamweaver

Imo scripting everything by hand go much faster than using a software...
for me scripting = development and software = design...
lots of high level development companies will ask for you to be ale to hand script instead of just using software...
get a few tuts, like everything it'll confuse you for a bit and probably hurt your head for a while then it'll click on and its all good
Much better code comes from writing stuff in notepad after learning properly. When you're writing complex pages or you have to deliver pages to SLAs then a few kb saved here and there might make the difference.
Another tiny problem is, i dont know much html code, but i want to go into networking so that i think is not needed but im open to learn it
