Hi Robin,

Thanks for the reply, but you don't mention your "qualifications".
My whole project is to demystify the thing for people who are simply Users,
not Geeks or would-be's.

As for Frontpage, the dozen or so people I know who make a living - yes,
actually pay their rent from their activities as serious Web Implementers
*all* use FP. Specifically, FP98. ( There are excellent reasons for it
commercially and productively, if not technically)
There is nothing simpler, there is nothing faster, there is nothing cheaper
or easier to support - which is where you make or lose your hourly rate in
the real world.
I have tried to replace it many times ( a sucker for anything promising THIS
time it will work  :-) ) and still use it.
BUT am always happy to hear from anyone about something different, new,
better - after all - I've been with Linux since 5.2. :-)

BTW: Your comment about people who can't be bothered coding HTML
..................... you qualify as a Geek on THAT alone.  :-)

Cheers!

John
