    In the world of the Internet, there is the most important point that will be the website. Code writers used to change their web-pages by normal word editors such as Notepad.

    After several years of web permitting, web pages became more complicated. Therefore, it is too difficult to program web-pages manually using standard term authors as a result of using therefore much graphics. Because of this, many businesses provid their own web authors. The most used programs are Macromedia Dreamweaver and Microsoft FrontPage. Within the web design world, you will find two large sets of web developers, one of which prefers Microsoft FrontPage and one of which prefers Macromedia Dreamweaver. In this argument, there are both advantages and disadvantages in using these two softwares.

    Microsoft Frontpage:

    Microsoft FrontPage:The thought of providing a web publisher as Microsoft FrontPage is to decrease the difficulties of fabricating websites. The birthday with this application which will be offered by Vermeer Technologies, Inc was in 1994. The application was called 'WYSIWYG', What You See Is What You Get. Then, Microsoft, Corp bought the software rights and changed the name to Microsoft FrontPage in 1995. Next, Microsoft has made several changes of the software: version 1.1, version 2, communicate 2.0 and so on until Microsoft FrontPage 2003. But, Microsoft in 2013, 2007 has stopped providing FrontPage and they made two kinds of softwares, Microsoft SharePoint Designer and Microsoft Expression Web.

    You will find two features of using Microsoft FrontPage. One of them that's the interface of Microsoft FrontPage may be the same as Microsoft Word.

Your web pages that are created with Microsoft FrontPage could be browsed clearly by Microsoft Internet Explorer, however they could not be browsed well by other web browsers such as Mozilla Firefox. 2nd, you'll need a web server to be able to work some energetic actions. Joe, in his report 'Macromedia Dreamweaver Compared to Microsoft FrontPage' says' Another little drawback of Frontage is that you need a web server that supports FrontPage extensions to acquire some features to work.'

    Macromedia Dreamweaver:

    Macromedia Dreamweaver is one of the strongest programs throughout the internet permitting world. Macromedia Corp, which provided Flash and Fireworks programs, entered the world of web development by giving Macromedia Dreamweaver in 1996. Consequently, Macromedia Corp produced the 'WYSIWYG', What You See Is What You Get, to make the Dreamweaver software. Since Macromedia Dreamweaver became the most important vendor of-the organization, they made quite a few changes for this software: Dreamweaver 2.0, Dreamweaver 3.0 until Dreamweaver CS3. In-fact, Adobe Corp ordered Macromedia Corp in 2006, so they became one company a year ago.
