What's a good program for the non-professional for designing web pages.
I don't know anything about html, but I've got 6 years experience in desktop publishing and am quite expert in QuarkXpress, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. Think I can handle it? ------------------ "To speak ill of others is a dishonest way of praising ourselves" |

The 3 most widely used are Front Page Express (free with IE4.x and up), Netscape Composer (also free with 4.x and up) and Arachnophilia (free, careware).
Read and download all about Arachnophilia/careware in the Web/Utilities section on my pages. ------------------ Who needs a life?, I have internet! Cheers, Jim Jim & Sue's Free Files | Jims Modems |

If you want a free HTML editor, then use either Arachnophilia or First Page 2000. If you are willing to pay for the editor, then you can't get better than Homesite. If you want a wysiwyg editor, then purchase Dreamweaver, but this is not the way to learn HTML programming.

If you want to learn HTML, the best place to start is Arachnophilia. It has a guide on creating HTML pages in its help section.

Although it's expensive, Dreamweaver by Macromedia is a very good program. Just my .02

LoL!
Dont use FrontPage Express, if you want to create a good website! And if you want to have a nice and quickly loading site you MUST learn HTML and CSS. This not so hard. 2-3 days of experiments with tags and I think you be a good one. Good luck with your first site! |

I agree Aquila! However now that I'm older and lazier, I use Net Objects Fusion, which is a superb program, it lets you lay out you web design in a flow chart format and then add the data and graphics, you can change the entire site style with the click of a button. Personally I love this program, it does have it's limitations but that'a where notepad comes in.
