There is only one thing you can do to write better sites - do it by hand. Of course there is room for improvements - but it is the best app available for the moment…
drop-down menus, wysiwyg figs - Version: 4.2.3, 5/16/2009 05:30AM PST

iWeb is wonderfully wysiwig and especially in placing and sizing figures is far superior to RapidWeaver.
iWeb does not do drop-down menus. Though recommended by an Apple store rep, RapidWeaver doesn't really do drop-down menus either. It looks like it does at first, but it gets two things wrong that make it unuseable. 1) The top menu that pops up the pull-down must implement a link. 2) The drop-down menu text headers word wrap after only 22 characters. Also, drop-down menus are impossible to find in the RapidWeaver documentation.
I told RealMac about these problems in version 4.2.1, but here in version 4.2.3 the problems still persists. So there is no reason to spend money on RapidWeaver when free iWeb does everything else better.

I have used RW for a few months and found it easy to use and I was able to develop what I consider a very slick Web Site. I purchase it at a reduced price but think even at its current price it is a bargain when you consider what it would cost to have someone else build a site for you. I do agree that the templates that come with it are a bit lacking. The third party templates and plugins are very slick and in my opinion is what makes this software rock. I have had occasion to need tech support and received answers almost immediately. I feel the learning curve was fairly easy and I would recommend this software to anyone. One does not need to know any code to build a nice site but if you do you can really make your site even slicker.
