Developing web pages in Mac

[waks13]

Currently, I am using MS Frontpage to upload all our webpages to a frontpage web server. but now I want switch all to Mac.

What kind of software is best and easiest for web page development in Mac ?
Is this possible to import every web pages from Frontpage into Mac ? or Do I have to start again from scratch. Its around 90-100 web pages.

Any experience guys?

Dreamweaver will do. but make sure to test cross browser.

I use Macromedia Flash for my websites, but with static HTML I also recommend Dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver really is the best. It lets you program in several different languages ranging for javascript to php to asp. Importing Frontpage websites should be no problem at all Though as super_ed said.. make sure you have a windows machine and browsers like IE, Mozilla and Safari so you can ensure that they all look exactly how they're supposed to.

dreamweaver is good but i would recommend getting BBEdit as well. Hard coding is still good because you have full control on how code is written. Prototype in DW then clean up in BBEdit.

as stated...the combination of Dreamweaver and BBEdit is the easiest and most efficient to work with.

Curious, what does BBEdit have that Dreamweaver doesn't? You can switch to code only mode in Dreamweaver, so why do you need BBedit?

I use BBEdit for quick code fixes when I don't need all the functionalities (and "bulk&quot of Dreamweaver. It's much faster to start up and the HTML Palette is quite comprehensive. Like Dreamweaver, the FTP/SFTP functions are great for retrieving and updating files on a server.
