I use vi. I play with Front Page 98. I've heard about Dream Weaver. Here's an interesting comparison of web page editor import capabilities: http://www.macromedia.com/software/dreamweaver/demo_roundtrip.html

You can ftp frontpage webs, but some of the features like themes, counters, etc. won't work unless the webserver is Frontpage enabled. You can edit navigation bars and themes in Frontpage with some simple steps. To edit a theme, open the Themes dialog box again and click the Modify button. When you do, the dialog box will change to reveal a new row of buttons. The first three buttons (Colors, Graphics, and Text) let you access the various theme elements. The rest of the detailed instructions on changing themes you'll find at http://www.microsoft.com/INSIDER/frontpage2000/articles/robots.htm You can change graphics, change the text that appears as part of the graphics, and change colors and backgrounds. In other words, you can develop your own custom themes.
