I have taught web design for many students. I confess I only taught them MS FrontPage. As a WYSIWYG editor it had certain possibilities. Most of my students were graphic oriented and they liked Dream Weaver and I could not show any thing better with MS Front Page. I don't believe FrontPage was as good as Dream Weaver. However Microsoft's .NET 2.0 is awsome. Now you will not hear of its predecessor Visual Interdev. Especially with the AJAX support and the CLR; its integration with SQL 2005 server; the plug-ins from literally 100's of software vendors, it is going to stay for a long time. It was unfortunate it did not adopt the SVG for its graphics. That would have made it more universal.

Coming back to the question which is better, FrontPage or DreamWeaver. I must say my vote is for Dream Weaver.
