Tom - I used Claris Home Page v 2.0 for my web sites. As of about a year ago
it is no longer supported and will not be upgraded. So I am slowly switching
to Adobe GoLive 5.0. From what I have read, this is a good compromise
between the bare-bones hand coding of the free and cheap programs, on the
one hand, and Dreamweaver on the other. I haven't used other Adobe programs
to any great extent, and find myself constantly irritated with the program's
assumption that it knows more about what I want to do than I do. Kinda like
Windoze and MS Office. But, unlike the MS products, the Adobe products often
seem to be right. The context-sensitive floating pallets really do work
well. And the source code is only a click away if you want to inspect or
correct . . . 

As a non-programmer, I have used FORTRAN, Basic, LISP, and a few scripting
languages (like HyperCard and AppleScript). HTML is the least complicated to
learn and to use, by far. Like with FORTRAN, if you keep the "do-loops"
[HTML tags] properly nested then you can't go too far wrong.
