Hi All,
Which program should I learn for professional
web design.
1. Frontpage 2000
2. Dreamweaver 4 + Ultradev 4
3. Coldfusion 4.5
I need to create websites with databases, e-mail,
shoppingbasket, payment with master cards.
Thanx for your time.
cheers

Coldfusion competes ASP, JSP, or PHP for server-side programming, it's not a editor like DreamWeaver.
I use Homesite 4.5 to achieve pure coding harmony. J/k. Great Program with available add-on's.
ttlai, I think you're the first person besides me I've seen say they use HomeSite, my favorite editor.
Dreamweaver seems to be an industry standard, Adobe GoLive is quite widely used too.
The best thing to do is to learn raw HTML and then experiment with a few editors (the demo versions will do if you're a fairly quick learner). There's a load of free ones online, and most of them are fairly similar.
Yeah, out of that little lot (and most of the others out there), go with Dreamweaver. Btw - AVOID FRONTPAGE !!!
It can access databases as well as the programmer can access databases. All it is is a glorified text editor with color-coding for HTML, ASP, etc. and tag insight/completion for HTML. I really like it. I hate WYSIWYG editors.Quote:
Don't have any information about Homesite. Can it access databases?
I find Dreamweaver to be an excellent product. It integrates really nicely with other Macromedia stuff like Fireworks and Flash.
Just whatever you do dont use Frontpage! Ever! Although some people still seem to be using that program - it really messes up any scripting. Go Live seems popular as many designers like the Adobe interface.

Thanks All for your information.
After what I've seen and heard I think
that Dreamweaver + Ultradev will be the best
choice for now.
Adobe Golive looks good but my choice is
Dreamweaver.
Oke, now starting with the tutorial and give
it a try.
cheers

Good luck :)
