Hi Shane.
In order to use these applications on hour own computer, you would
also need a web server since the interface on which they are
configured and utilized requires web services. There are, however,
references to hosting services or other servers on which you can play
with and utilize the services on their web sites.
I've only had experience with drupal and a little Plone, but they can
be found at these web sites:
http://drupal.org/
and
http://www.plone.org/
I know I haven't explained these systems terribly well, but I found
this sort of web site creation to be very simple, accessible, clean,
and still visually appealing. Since Mac OS runs on Linux, I'm sure
apache or some other server can be made to run easily and then one can
install drupal or whatever to run with it. You simply log in to
drupal as administrator, for example, click "add content" and you're
on your way.
Hope this helps. If you have any questions, please ask away.
Best regards,
-Jason

Hi, Jason. Where you obtain this software? Is it compatible with
the Mac, I mean does it install in Leopard? Thanks for the info!

These interfaces are, in my experience, very accessible and require
as little or as much HTML know-how as a person has. They are also
great because an effort is made to comply with w3c standards as
well as those other standards (I'm forgetting what they are called
at the moment) for accessibility. I know this is especially the
case for Plone.

Perhaps I have the wrong idea, but another alternative to using a
potentially inaccessible web editor like Dream Weaver is using a
content management system like plone or drupal. Using this system,
one can configure the layout which can include style sheets and
graphics and simply fill out forms to publish their content.

Hi Shane and all,
Well, I do quite a bit of web development and php scripting for web
sites. Typically, I find I'd rather just use a simple text editor
rather than using and paying for the expensive alternatives like
Dream Weaver. Though, if I have to use something specifically
designed for web development Notetab for Windows is a good
application. Though, as I said I mostly use a simple text editor
with no features or wizards.

Hi, John. I just might have to test out IWeb. If I do, you can
rest assured that I will let the list know what I find. I'm very
hopeful that there are others on this list who do web development,
so we'll see.
