NICK BURT  Great product – It enhances RapidWeaver's capabilities no end – and great support. I emailed the developer with a query and got the answer I was looking for within an hour and a half. Fantastic!  (Version 3.1.1)

MD07  This + Rapidweaver is a really solid product. It's not perfect, but neither are any of the alternatives (maybe your hand-coded CSS/XHTML isn't perfect either!) I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs to build a creative site extremely fast. Even if you're just using the created site as a feature rich mockup for clients, the price and ease of use really can't be beat. Kudos to the dev.  (Version 3.1)

DAN.TINIANOW  I invite Blocks 3 users to visit my new website, www.blockshead.com to share blocks and master pages for the new Blocks 3 library feature. Nothing to download yet, but now accepting file submissions. Thanks!  (Version 3.0.1)

YOURHEAD  RapidWeaver is not designed to do WYSIWYG -- and neither is Blocks. Blocks only controls the content area of your RapidWeaver layout.

I DOES allow you to do thing that other pure WYSIWYG software does not. You can add HTML code, PHP, Flash and javascript very easily.

Those benefits (or RapidWeaver as a whole) come at the cost of pure WYSIWYG.

I'm sorry someone had trouble with Internet Explorer -- but I believe his experience is probably not the norm.

I use Blocks for many pages on my own web site and it's tested regularly to work well on IE 6 and 7, Firefox, Comino, Opera, and of course, Safari.

Give it a test yourself and find out!
