Easy to use web design software.

[D Slicker]

I have to make a 3 to 4 page web site for my familys development company and am looking for a web design program but am not sure what to get. Do any of you have any advise?

Since you're only doing a couple web pages Mozilla composer should be enough.
Mozilla

Mozilla is the project that led to Firefox. Mozilla has a web browser, email, composer all in one. They split the web browser off into Firefox and the email into Thunderbird. The idea was to make a browser that uses less memory.

I would avoid using the Mozilla browser since it's a bit out of date might have security issues.

If you're not doing a lot of pages there is no need to invest in commercial software. Mozilla composer does a lot of stuff.

I will look into that thanks. My brother inlaw just gave me Frontpage also.

Re-read my post carefully. Firefox is OK to use.

Mozilla is the name of the project that Firefox came from and the software program that Firefox came from. Firefox replaced Mozilla's web browser part. Mozilla the software (not the project) did more than browse the web.

You probably mean you are using Firefox at home. Firefox is being updated regularly and is OK to use.

For dslicker to install the part of Mozilla to makes web pages he has to install the whole thing.

In regards to dslicker using Frontpage:
It tends to make web pages that work best with whatever version of internet explorer was out at the time his version of Frontpage came out. It is not designed to play well with Firefox and other browsers much less even newer versions of IE. It was another attempt by Micro$oft to lock the world into their "standards".

Thanks for taking the time to explain that again. Thread jack is over
Sorry Brent

Instead of frontpage should i use adobe or something else. I am running firefox right now and can I just do a plug in for that?

Definately Dreamweaver.

Beginner's use it, and professionals use it. That should give you an idea of the capability of it.

I believe the trial is still a 30 day full trial.

Free trial I like that. Thanks

notepad and a keyboard!!!

no but seriously, dreamweaver and stuff like that is great for those who want to make one without learning how. Send me a pm if you have any questions Brent
