Seth,

This is doesn't answer the original question but coincidentally I was looking at getting web stuff for work. Since it seems you might know stuff, I'll address this to you (though others may also know). It seems appropriate to put it here, as opposed to starting a new thread.

Need to set up something fairly fancy for work - something that describes my lab, what we can do, technique description and maybe short tutorials, and more. Since I have some time to do this, I want to do this myself - I believe it will be more effective and get across what I want rather than if I farmed it out.

In the last few days, I've asked around. Frontpage has been discarded almost immediately. HomeLife has been recommended (as learn the code yourself). GoLive has also been mentioned but Dreamweaver seems to have the edge.

Finally the question - there is Dreamweaver 4 ((CAN)$165 - educational price)and with Fireworks 4 ((CAN) $240). But what does Fireworks actually do, would I need it (find it useful) or is it overkill?

Trust others don't mind my asking - from the blurb given, it is not clear to me - also glanced at the web3 site which looked very useful.

Regards Rana
