>The criteria for judging whether FP is a good tool or not is whether FP does what the owner wants it to do.

er no thats not the criteria at all!!

A car gets you from A to B is does what the owner wants it to do.

But what if the car uses 10 X the usual amount of fuel and emits toxic fumes which kill 20 people a day?

Is this still a good tool?

I used FP for over 18 months it did what I wanted it ti do and I didnt understand why people kept going on about how bad it was. I couldnt code a site from scratch so to me FP was great, if I wanted to I could tinker around with the code myself.

Then I moved onto Dreamweaver and started learning more about code and with horror looked back to what FP had done to my previous pages.

All those people were right after all, so maybe when so many people slate something there is good cause behind it.
