Hi cybertiiger,
Welcome to WebmasterWorld. Any WYSIWYG editor has a learning curve. A lot of people use Dreamweaver and like it. A lot of people use Frontpage / Frontpage Express. You really need to try a few out to see what works best for you. There are two free editors you might want to try. NVU and Html-kit. NVU is more like dreamweaver, but Html-kit has a lot more features, but is lacking on documentation.

You might check out FrontPage since you are already accustomed to the MS products. It might be a less of a learning curve for you -Corey

Or you might consider learning html (then CSS), which I found far easier than Dreamweaver or any other WYSIWYG editor I have found........
Then you can create clean code when and as you really want it.

yup - Right on the money. I leant HTML using Dreamweaver - you can see what effect your HTML is having on your page layout. It's tricky to grasp at first - I should know, I learnt using it, but once you have a good idea of the basics the rest starts to get easier. It allows a nice mix of WYSIWYG and in-code editing.

I agree - Dreamweaver seems generally far superior to Frontpage, and tends to make far leaner (tidier code + smaller file-size) pages.
But yes, the learning curve is definitely steeper. There are lots of fantastic tutorials online (many use interactive flash), so I recommend taking the harder but more rewarding route and doing the Dreamweaver thang :)

Yeah, Frontpage is a little bit easier for MS users. Try that.
