Hi all
I'm brand new to web design and want to hit the ground running with an advanced toolset. I would like to use a product that enables a complete novice like myself, to put together a basic web site easily, yet has the power & flexibility that an experienced web developer would want. The idea is, once I get familiar with things and then want to get more fancy and dig deeper, the toolset I'm using needs to already have all the advanced features - so that I can grow into it. So the toolset needs to cover the A to Z of website design (with nothing left out).
At the moment, I just want to create a personal website, but then I want to move on to creating a commercial website for a business I want to create.
I understand Delphi 7 has some good web stuff? And I've just been reading a little about Delphi Web Scripting. Ideally I'd like to use something within Delphi, but I'm not opposed to something completely different. A colleague uses Dream Weaver, but I don't know much about it. If I could find a product that is seamless that would be great - i.e. where I don't need to learn a bit of html, java script, some other script, asp syntax, etc. to tie it all together (maybe that's a pipe dream?)
I'm happy if the product is open source, or costs up to $400. I can't afford to spend 1000's!
Any suggestions of products to check out or things I should know?
P.S. I also want to look at whether I get my ISP to host, or use my own PC as the Web server, as I have Jet Start. What are the pros & cons of each?
Thanks for your thoughts.
