I prefer frontpage, as i just find some of the features easy to use.I have spent longer using it, and reading about it.also, it is simialar to a lot of the microsoft office family, which i am very familiar with, so its the best for me anyway.

I use frontpage for most of my designs apart from notepad and dreamweaver.Dreamweaver is good in a few respects but i felt frontpage has better features and easy usability.Even now i remember how i struggled with dreamweaver.Frontpage is a cake walk for those who are familiar with MS Office.For designing of scripts a dedicated software is betterExpression web, the recent heir to frontpage has its own limitations and i had to uninstall it after a horrible experience.

Even though they fall in the same category they are not suppposed to be compared. While Dreamweaver has always been in constant development whereas, Frontpage has been developed just for the sake of it.I was lucky enough to get a hand on Macromedia Dreamweaver version 1 (trial) from?oldversion.com.?The?download?link?now?has?been?removed.?I?must?say?that?for?the?technology?of?those?days(1997)?the?softwares?was?well?developed?with?even?a?bit?of?DHTML.Dreamweaver has best project management tools.I like the templating system as it helps for creating small websites and when we cannot use server side includes or php includes. The best part of it, it has the dynamic code insert function which saves me a lot of typing. Frontpage --> May be it would be useful for some beginners as it comes with default Office package. But even then freeware are better than frontpage.

I would have to say dreamweaver, it has much more support for more advanced aditing features, and seems to work beter than frontpage at handling code you input in the HTML section.I dont like microsoft software, so i would always use dreamweaver ver frontpagem but i usually use a text based or code based aditor, rathr than a WYSIWYG editor.

I dont think we will be serious to compare a very powerful suite like Dreamweaver with frontpage. Frontpage simply can't fall in that category. I only used Frontpage before I was a beginner. When I began I started using notepad and then Dreamweaver. Frontpage will limit a developer. Someone told me Frontpage is the best if you want to design .asp based sites but I don't know about that.All I know is that a Microsoft tool is always the wrong tool for any job.
