Subject:Netscape Composer, MS Publisher, or Word 97? From:Laurel Nelson <Laurel_Y_Nelson -at- NOTES -dot- SEAGATE -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 19 Jun 1998 12:15:45 -0500
Hi all: I'm going to be creating a web site (my first) for a group of
artists and am hoping that some of you can give me feedback on which tool I
should use--Netscape Composer, MS Publisher, or Word 97. I have all three
on my PC. I prefer to keep my expenses down and don't want to purchase more
software if I don't have to.
The site design is going to be very simple. Each artist will have their
resume online and ten images.
If anyone has used Netscape Composer, MS Publisher, or Word 97 to create a
web site, did you have any browser problems? If anyone is familiar with all
of these tools, which one is the easiest to use?
If, down the road, I want to use another application like FrontPage to
create something more complex, would I have to rebuild the web site
completely if I use Netscape Composer?
