Website Software
Evening all,
I'm one of the updaters on a website. We use Microsoft FrontPage but have acknowledged it will be obsolete before much longer and are looking for a long term replacement.
It needs to be something as simple as a FrontPage, i.e. a glorified Word document, where you can just open a page, input your information and click save without getting a million and one pop-ups along the way.
If anyone knows of anything, please let me know.
Thanks.

What DTVAirport is probably looking for is a WYSIWYG HTML editor such as Adobe Dreamweaver, that's one of many examples that resembles Frontpage. If you want something Microsoft, then Frontpage's successor is probably Microsoft Expression.

Wordpress and InyMCE
Hi,
You may/may not be aware that many CMS (e.g. Wordpress) provide *almost* WYSIWYG on the textareas using a version of TinyMCE. More robust WYSIWYG editors are available as plugins.
This editing area for comments on PP are a pretty good example.
Now I'm back in the development biz, we use Wordpress for most of our sites, it's just easier.

Uncomplicated, unfussy, even for a newbie!
I have been using Xara Designer for nearly 30 years in its various iterations, originally as a design tool for producing website graphics. However, the software has developed to such an extent now, that I can design a complete website using the software, including navigation etc and with one mouse press, export the whole site in one go. Xara generates the style sheets, the jpegs, the pngs and the html. The clever thing though, is that you can also use the software to create pdf documents for easy print, high res photo editing and so on.
I have no axe to grind, except as a very satisfied long term user. You can try before you buy at their website.
