Web development software other than Dreamweaver. How does it compare?

I need help in discovering a web development software, other than Dreamweaver. How does it compare in price, ease of use, learning curve, capabilities, etc.





I appreciate your time and insight.


Thank you

Frontpage is terrible; anyone who says otherwise is very ignorant and/or inexperienced. No professional uses Frontpage, period. It creates garbage code.





Dreamweaver is currently the industry standard. NVU is the most popular free, open-source alternative. Of course, you do get what you pay for, so it's not going to be quite as easy to use or sophisticated as Dreamweaver. But for free, it's quite excellent. http://www.nvu.com/





Microsoft just released a new product designed to compete directly with Dreamweaver; it's called Expression and you can download a trial version from http://www.microsoft.com/expression - I believe it's $279 retail. It is geared towards professionals, so it is a little harder to use than Dreamweaver, but it is very powerful.
Reply:dreamweaver is the industry leader for web development. frontpage by microsoft is ok


html-kit by chamni is free. Good to use if you understand web development.





I like dreamweaver. There's also lots of tutorials out there.
