But if you want your pages to be of maximum use to someone else, there are no shortcuts. The only thing FrontPage does is add a delay between getting your pages on the web and getting them to work the way they should. As a nuts-and-bolts web designer, I don't use any editing software. However, I've heard rave reviews of the free 1stPage html editor. One of these days I'm going to try it out myself. You can find it at http://www.evrsoft.com/1stpage/ . The site isn't coming up for me right now so I'm viewing the cached page at http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:www.evrsoft.com/1stpage/+first+page +web+editing+software&hl=en (paste together if multiple lines) > Could you direct me to where I can find some templates for this? I'll let someone else help you with the template question. One suggestion I have for you is that you learn how to make tables with html. Besides css (which isn't quite universal yet), they are the only means to format web pages. The web site you mention uses nested tables. A good table tutorial can be found at http://htmlgoodies.earthweb.com/tutors/tbl.html If you are serious about designing a web site, it will be well worth your time to learn how to design a page from scratch. Joe Burns' table tutorials, at the site above, will help you with this. Unless you understand how the page is constructed from the basic framework on up, you'll only find confusion and disappointment using an html editor such as FrontPage. (These editors can provide plenty of frustration even if you do understand html.) For starters, you can paste this into Notepad and you'll have a basic table to frame your content on the page: Replace all ( 's with < (table border="0" width="100%"> (tr> (td width="60%"> You can paste a column of text here (/td> (td width="40%"> You can place images here or a different column of text (/td> (/tr> (tr> (td colspan="2"> More text can go here (/td> (tr> (/table> I'm sure someone else will have some better information for you but I hope this helps.
