clipped from: www.techsoup.org Dreamweaver, GoLive, and FrontPage all include support for creating and debugging JavaScript behaviors. The current version of Nvu includes very limited tools for creating JavaScript (just a calendar option), but it will allow you to create the code.
Dreamweaver is the only product here that includes support for connecting to back-end databases. In FrontPage, database features only work if your ISP offers FrontPage extensions. Other advanced features, like blogs and data-driven news pages, require Windows SharePoint Services.
