Alright, heres the deal, I know a lot about HTML coding and stuff like that. I could make basic BS programs using Visual Basics and I am interested in learning web page coding. I have two programs, FrontPage 2002 and Dreamweaver 4. Which one should I use and any tips or links where I can get help, templates, and graphics, thanks.

From a professional standpoint I think Dreamweaver leaves Front Page for dead. Macromedia Help is pretty good and there is plenty of support on their web site.

You'll get results that are SOOOO much better using Dreamweaver 4, lots of info on the web about using it too. Also, here is a novel idea buy a book off Amazon.com to learn the program and support this forum at the same time (be sure to use the links on this board).

The FrontPage disc makes a nice coaster.

FrontPage = daily driver
Dreamweaver = S2000

You pick!

Frontpage = automatic

... try to stay away from MS-Frontpage as its finalized HTML pages are more tailored to IE browsers so you may not get the same view when viewing with other browsers.

Dreamweaver is a really good tool to use and the "crap code" that it generates is minimal in comparison.
