RGILBREATH Ok, before looking at the 2 star rating at writing off RW completely you should understand that I've been trying to use it for a commercial website and doing all of the coding by hand. For this purpose, it stinks. Sorry RealMac, but it's true. That being said, if I was doing a personal website or a friends/family photo sharing site I'm sure it would be just fine. It would probably be easier than most as it handles all of the complicated file sharing and blogging code for you. But if your going to be hand coding your pages and you need them to exact specs then this is not the product for you. So far I've experienced things like: nested div's disappearing when assigning more than 3 CSS attributes to them, RW assigning the attributes of child div's to its parent, built in options for choosing theme variations within different pages not working correctly (or at all sometimes) and other such application bugs that simply make it unusable for commercial web sites (at least in my opinion). I purchased it with the built in options like different page styles that are already coded and set up for QT movies, file sharing, blog pages, contact pages, etc. I figured it would be nice to be able to focus on the content and let the application handle the longer code for me. And as I'm sure it does handle those codes well, it unfortunately is extremely buggy when it comes to the actual content (if you're planning on hand coding). And yes, as many others have mentioned, having to switch between is preview and edit is a huge pain in the rear. Again, if you're doing some personal web pages and don't want to learn HTML, CSS, PHP, etc., then this may be a perfectly fine product for you that offers a more robust feature set than iWeb. But if you're hand coding anything remotely complicated, or if you're managing a commercial site, I would have to recommend an application that is actually designed for HTML editing program like DreamWeaver.
