Dreamweaver is easy. It even has a split feature where you can instantly see what happens to your website while adding the code. Though they should still work on their WYSIWYG interface coz it still needs a little improvement.

By the way, as Adobe bought Macromedia, theres a new Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 released which adds up Photoshop and and other nifty gadgets to the normal Dreamweaver all for the site designer in you.

Handcoding is the way. You get much better control of the page. But I still use Dreamweaver because the colour coded syntax is so useful. But there are cheaper options if you look.

Developing sites with Dreamweaver is so much faster than hand coding but it is only WYSIWYG up to a point and doesn't produce code that is W3C standards compliant. As someone who develops accessible (well as much as possible) sites standards code is really important.

I am told the new FrontPage is standards compliant - but I don't belive it, Marquee for a starter.

In simple terms Dreamweaver is a DTP package (eg Publisher) for Web Sites. Think that and you are half the way to understanding what it does and how it works.
