Netscape composer, it's free and practical. It's like a little lesser in quality but almost the same thing as FrontPage. It comes with netscape when you download it. Look for it in the tasks menu.

i've had a hard time downloading netscape for the mac os X, in fact i still have the aborted download on my desktop that i can't even delete - does anyone know anything about this? (because i wanted to get compser too. I've had little luck in getting free/cheap/easy web software for my mac)

What happens when you try to delete it?

I've downloaded netscape a few times and it came out all right. DO you have OS X 1.5? that os x has given me a lot of problems, I think I'm going to buck up and get that panther thing.

May I recommend downloading Batchmod to delete your problem file. It saves you the hassle of knowing the Terminal command for deleteing problem files. And it is free and I swear it works. In fact I use it at work.

Now go to Macupdate.com or Version Tracker and do a search for web design. There are some free or shareware options out there. You just got to know where to peep. But just a warning. No free web design tool is going to be a good as GoLive or Dreamweaver.

Rock it.

Dreamweaver is the only WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get.) designer that really allows you to be a complete idiot and still get a pretty decent site out of it. Works great with Mac OSX (get panther everyone!). I had no prior experience with web design, and I feel good about what Dreamweaver did for me. See http://www.othersidecomedy.net for an example.
