The editor that comes with I.E. is FrontPage Express which is a very basic GUI type editor with few bells and whistles and no real relationship with FrontPage. FrontPage 2002 is the most recent version and goes for around $150. http://shopper.cnet.com/shopping/resellers/1,10231,0-7085-311-5600609,00.htm l If your using FP because you need some of it's special features or tie-ins that's OK, but if you are using it because you don't know how to code, your really hurting yourself. You need to know how to write code without the editor. Editors are not infallible and eventually you will be asked to do something the editor alone won't be able to do. Editors are tools. I use several depending on what I am doing. I use one for HTML, a different one for XML and a third for JavaScript. I also use about five graphics programs and pick the one that suits the task the best. If I am out in the garage banging on a piece of wood, I may use different hammers and different chisels - but it's the person doing the work, not the tool that gets it done.
