I am trying to get used to iWeb, instead of spending out more cash on an alternative more like Dreamweaver. i start up iWeb i get a message telling me i have a font missing, "MaturaMTScriptCapitals" it then tells me "to include missing fonts, add them to your fonts folder etc", i found my FONTS folder which is empty, underneath it is a folder named Font Collections, there are no clues where i might find this missing font. where did it go ?. and how do i get it back sufficiently to stop this annoying message, please.

I know it doesn't directly answer your question - but just a tip... Dreamweaver is at the opposite end of the spectrum from a template based editor like iWeb. One is intended for professionals, the other for setting up casual websites. I suggest you look at something more in between the two like RapidWeaver.

Good to hear it mate!

Depending on what exactly you want to do web-wise, I'd suggest looking at Rapidweaver, Wordpress, Contribute, Freeway and Sandvox among others. Just google the words (plus "mac" to be sure you get the mac product/version) and see what you think.

If you're big on hand-coding, you might also look at Text Wrangler and Coda among others.
