Whatever you do, dont spend hours and hours of input to your website if your using Netobjects Fusion!

The second you reload your pc, dont expect your website to load easily back into the program without giving you grief!

First off my drive for images had changed so EVERY image i used had to be remapped, secondly it doesnt keep the sizes logged in any backup (??) so your pages get deformed when your images go to their original sizes, and thirdly any tables etc. that you took from a template are totally lost and you have to remake them all again from scratch. Dont get me started on colours!

Grrrrrr!

Im gonna go see if frontpage has improved since the 97 version...

Why cant EXPORT MEAN EXPORT!!!

Personally, I prefer Namo WebEditor. It miles better than FrontPage and miles simpler than Dreamweaver. :)

Dreamweaver's crap unless its MX. Then you can use the code editor because its basically Coldfusion Studio with dreamweaver built in. But I'd use either Jrun Studio or <B>NOTEPAD!</B> :)

No mate people with skill, the problem with things like dreamweaver/netObjects is you don't really understand whats going on, so when it goes wrong you are fooked :)

Its like cars you might be able to change the paint colour and bolt a few bits on but unless you understand the inner workings of the engine....

I've seen the dreamweaver overnight webdesigner mob trying to move into php, xml, asp perl etc without the benefit of a programming background :D

This is why web designers get paid 2p an hour its all monkey work in dreamweaver now.

I used to used Utradev / DreamWeaver at work.. got fed up with it... Now use UltraEdit :D

Text editors are best for any ASP / PHP stuff ;)

Ah Notepad. Text editors are the best web design tools ever. I only ever designed websites in text editors. Hence the reason I used this little logo a few times:
