seems ok. pages you designed no longer appeared to be tied to
GeoCities so you can now upload webpages to websties other than those
owned by Yahoo.

Hi ProteanThread,

I'm downloading it now. I'll take a look and let you know what I think.
I'm not expert WebMaster, but I've been around apps like this one a few
times.

Have fun!

Well, I tried it. It's big and it's slow. It uses all Java so you have
to have Sun Java installed.

It does present a nice interface and plenty of easy to use tools and
wizards. I give it about a 6 or 7 on a 1-10 scale.

It might be a good tool for a first timer to publish a small website.
I'd recommend anyone serious to use something like NVU, which has the
same features and more. NVU will be around long after Yahoo gets tired
of this stuff.

Have fun!

Can you give me a link to NVU?

TIA

Have you looked at the HTML code it produces? I'm quite curious to
see how clean that code would be...

Thanks,
Wald

Hi Wald,

I removed every last bit of the program after testing, including the
webpages it made for me. Sorry ...
