Aerbabe, if you want to do a basic site then I would spend about £20 on a book like seacue spoke of or HTML for Dummies and use Notepad. As you start to get the hang of the basics then look at source code for other sites.
Don't use frames, if nothing else they look 'orrible.
If you want to see what can be done with HTML and
Cascading Style Sheets then check out this site

Use
Firefox or Mozilla to get it's full effect. It almost makes you wish flash hadn't been invented, and there's not a dancing squirrel in site either.
