Thread Name: Tech: Does anyone use Microsoft Frontpage?
Subject: RE: tech: Does anyone use Microsoft Frontpage?
Frontpage runs the highest risk of producing pages that only look right when viewed with Internet explorer with the screen resolutions set to what it expects.

I can well believe Mountain Dog, that it generates huge amounts of markup. I wonder if it's as bad as Word in HTML output mode - that's spectacularly awful!

I prefer hand coded HTML and I love CSS and doing my own graphics!

I don't see how any HTML editor can be genuinely WYSIWYG. WYG for any given page is different on different systems. The best you can do with HTML is make something that makes sense (though maybe looking a bit different) over a wide range of browser capabilities and screen types.
