I've got one ... try this: http://www.microsoft.com/web/umbraco . It's the Visual Web Developer Express paired with the Umbraco CMS platform. Modern and powerful.

Talking about Futzing Control... Sorry to bring up this thread again. But, I'm still trying to explore some options. A Good number of years ago - I dabbled in DreamWeaver - and used it to build a basic website (nothing to do with my current e-commerce sites). However, I haven't used it for YEARS now, nor do I own it. So - I was just thinking - is there an Open-Source type tool that would allow me to build a website? Maybe something similar to DreamWeaver. However, that being said - I am hoping the tool allows me to not only do the layout and graphical design - but maybe also has some way to read some kind of datafile(s) in order to define the content and allow for quickly building the site. Maybe this doesn't really exist - in the way that I am hoping for - but, I figured I would give it a shot. And - as I mentioned previously in this message thread - I'm looking for something relatively simple to use and does NOT have a Steep learning curve... I was just doing some research online about it. I even saw some dev. Env. called NetBeans - which seems to be able to generate CSS type stuff for webpages. And, I'm on this webpage that lists a bunch of different open source tools - for webpage design, graphics manipulation and such. However, I'm hoping to hear of someone's experience here - and any good suggestions that aren't already on this webpage. The webpage in question is: http://sixrevisions.com/tools/30-useful-open-source-apps-for-web-designers/ Thanks in advance! -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Stephen Russell Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2011 1:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: VFP and Webpages...

Dynamic pages are rendered per hit, as is necessary. This way you get the best of both, but with no additional futzing around. --------------------- I am still looking for that futz control.
