}PageMill/SiteMill/FrontPage all suck big time. Very dodgy code, which
often
}doesn't work in Netscape at all (they rarely close tags).
funny you say that.....most people reckon FP inserts TOO MANY tags (ie:
those that you really don't have to use, like </P>)

as for not working in Netscape.....I've never had any problems besides
those with authentication techniques

}To be honest, I still code everything in vi or BBEdit. The designers like
}to use these gimmicky tools, I prefer to have real control.
yeah gimmicky tools which provide such nasties as version control,
automated maintenance, integrated scripting, navigation control, change
logging, in-built search/index....yadda yadda yadda :)

no tool is perfect, but coding (HTML, script or otherwise) by hand is
oldfashioned and a waste of a good designers time

work smarter not harder.....someone said that, but can't remember
who.....(might have been a Lotus ad!)
