- I've got a "burning FrontPage question": why does it suck?
I'm sorry, but as a professional web developer, FrontPage really is a poor product when compared to Dreamweaver MX. I used FrontPage for years, so I am well aware of its capabilities; and I'm not anti-MS, either, I usually like their products. But in this case, if you're REALLY going to design a web site, Macromedia Dreamweaver is the only way to go.

- You raised another interesting point. Dreamweaver is not made specifically for Macromedia Server Technologies like ColdFusion or something. It works great with CFM, ASP, PHP and you name it... Hell, I can't even open PHP pages in FrontPage. And don't start me on usability of the software, for a change, Dreamweaver is a hell of a user friendly software if you are a lil bit habitual using Macromedia products.
Take adding a hyperlink to some text. In Dreamweaver, you simply select the text and add the hyperlink in the property bar, in Frontpage, you select the text, you press ctrl k that opens a window. there you see loads of option. u pick the one u want, u enter the link, then press enter key. Yawn.
