Web
Design Programs
These programs create the html code that show your webpages.
We recommend that you start with Frontpage Express included
with Internet Explorer or Netscape Composer included with
Netscape Communicator. Both programs are free of charge
and you most likely do not need to download first. |
 |
Microsoft Frontpage
Note that Microsoft supply a cutdown version
called Frontpage Express as part of Internet Explorer. This is
a very good start for beginners and is absolutely free to use.
If you don't have the program
download it here (requires winzip) |
 |
Netscape Communicator
Note that Netscape includes Composer which is a
great start when beginning to design webpages. This is a free
tool. |
