FP 2003 and Dreamweaver MX 2004

[Melissa]

I read some other posts concerning the relative merits of FP 2003 and DW MX
2004 and got some good information. Lots of opinions on this! My question is
this: I've been asked to take over the site adminsitration of a small website
which requires uploading of files and photos several time a year. It's a very
simple site with no search requirements or anything like that; people just
need to be able to get information and links. The present site admin is using
some version of Dreamweaver (probably not MX 2004). I am a COMPLETE beginner
and I don't know if I can learn DW fast enough. I don't know HTML or CSS,
either. Can I use FP 2003 to manage the site or should I get DW?

FP 2003 is definitely easier to use. That said, I hope you don't plan to
remain a "COMPLETE beginner," as web site development and management are
pretty technical. If you have questions, at least you know where to get
answers!

FP2003 is fine for that level of site.
Dreamweaver would be too....

The difference is the learning curve between the two programs, and what you
want to do (beyond uploading images and other basic maintenance.).
