[QUOTE="Robert C., post: 910171, member: 121903"] Overwhelmed? Not quite "Open the pod bay door, Hal!" but getting close... you are definitely right on how I perceive Dreamweaver, I'm not interested in writing code or refurbishing the entire internet in 7 days... and oh, yeah, I see how much it costs, no wonder the Apple store pushes it! Basically, I still have the two main issues: first, just making the word documents and jpegs I have into HTML documents. I know I sound like I'm looking for a cheap, quick&dirty way to do that, but I pretty much am. If I can get this issue done I'll have some time to work on my skills before the next one. As I said, what I am trying to do really seems so simple (and probably isn't) that "I might even be able to just do it on MS Word, which has 'save as HTML' or 'as web page' functions, could that possibly work, and if so which would be better? And the person who sent me here also suggested I check material out with 'text edit' for possible problems?" But again... "This brings me to my big problem, publishing, some shadowy cosmic metaphysical function called Export? which I have no grip on but clearly seem to need a program for.... hopefully shareware or something more affordable?" I seem to be able to make pages with Word but can't get them jammed into the template pages (marvel at my mastery of technical jargon here!).I know some people use Front Page, is there a Mac version, is it easier to use/more affordable? I know that every problem has a solution that is simple, attractive and wrong, but I'm still hoping for something doable, and I really appreciate advice... thanks! ~ Robert [/QUOTE]
