Hottest Technology for webdesign

    I use Dreamweaver just because its structured really well. I have used Frontpage and MSVWD and MSVWD is not structured very well, and it isnt the best tool out there for web developing unless your coding in ASP. Dreamweaver supports everything and sometimes has good templates instead of having to type like <a href="http://microsoft.com/">Microsoft</a>, you can just go to the toolbar and make one from that, very good for beginners.

    NVU is an open source HTML editor that you might want to check out. It's not bad although it isn't as feature rich (aka bloated) as FrontPage or Dreamweaver.

    I use 1st Page 2000. It is 100% free unlike its later version. The 2000 version is only a text editor and shortcut buttons to generate the code for you, like a swap image button. You need some HTML experience and you will learn more about HTML along the way. Program like Dreamweaver lets you move image and stuff around and generate the code for you; it is very easy that you don't need to learn HTML. I prefer text editor because I like to know what I am doing. Later version of 1st Page also can do certain amount of real time modification like Dreamweaver and it is a lot cheaper.

    I like Frontpage which MS has deprecated. There is no Frontpage 2007.  Pros seem to prefer dreamweaver.

    Also, there is the web designer itself which I have used extensively. There is therefore Webdesigner express. I have not used that as a separate component.
