At the risk of participating in a "My HTML Editor can beat up yours" 
thread...that's not true.  There are a TON of HTML editors out there 
that are VERY simple to use and make your site useable quickly and 
easily.  Frontpage is IMO the equivalent of using a Nuke to clear space 
in the forest to build a house.  It's messy, it does far more than is 
needed and it has great potential for created unintended consequences.  
Just out of curiosity, have you googled or asked around for 
alternatives?  Personally, I am a Macromedia Fan but that's just me.  
I've used a ton over the years....some better than others.  Are you 
looking for Non-W3C compliant coding?
