I purchased this program with the sole need of running yahoo site
builder. Some bug results in uncontrollable text box issues making the
program unusable (tried on both my G5 and G4 with same results). I
know it works for some people (based on what I've read anyway) but I
just wasted $250 in cash and wouldn't recommend this lemon to anyone.
If it's a true emulator it should run any windows based program
correctly, maybe slower but it should run. Whatever the approach has
been in setting this program up it fails to operate all packages
resulting in a total gamble for purchasers.

You're right of course. I'm working with an existing site and just
needed to perform some simple updates but my time and money would have
been more wisely invested in starting all over. How is dreamweaver
working for you?

Adobe (was Macromedia) Contribute allows you to modify existing sites
easily.
I have found GoLive to be easier and far more intuitive to use than
Dreamweaver.
Will be interesting to see what Adobe does with both products now that
they own Dreamweaver.

I have been too busy blogging
and researching danish genealogy to start learning it

I have a site due for a major update
http://www.rootsweb.com/%7Ednkcen/sitemap.html
I have a problem with deep linking census images to a street index
and a question of copyright

there is an online editor
so I tend to cut and paste html code after editing in mozilla composer

just used mac ms Word 2004 to make an html page
which I did not upload
when I looked at the MS html code i shuddered
and just stripped the text out and paste it into blogger

this arrived as a doc attachment to an email
http://kilmington.blogspot.com/2006/08/thank-you-bill-oxford.html


to learn xml is on my to do list
blogger.com works well in Firefox

I have a google ajax site which i created in windows

http://hugh.watkins.googlepages.com/

http://pages.google.com/-/about.html

the subdomain is based on ones gmail user id

http://www.aol.co.uk/123publish/123intro.htm

http://hometown.aol.co.uk/hughw36/myhomepage/famtree.html

Easy designer does not work on mac OS

but I have a virtual PC with parallels

trying out the yahoo site
I see it is a java app

thanks for the hint
