website building

[joyful girl]

I'm having a heck of a time building a website for my mother in laws business that's opening up soon.

I'm using dreamweaver to build and it's killing me!
I get the site looking really nice in dreamweaver but once it's uploaded it looks totally different.

what programs do you guys use?
I've built sites in the past but it has been awhile.

I also tried using a program called Webeasy and when I go to publish I have problems with that also.

I guess she should have hired a professional =/ I thought I could do it.

hi jenn
i use yahoo site builder. you have to pay them like 10 bucks a month to keep it going. once you play with it a bit you can make a cool site.

well I already have domain and hosting so I don't really want to pay for a site builder since I can download most of the programs online I just need one that isn't going to give me a headache every time I try to use it

Dreamweaver 8 make sure your uploading your css files to the server and that the page is pointing to that css file also dreamweaver has a place where you can tell it what type of browser you want your page to work on. Like you can make it only work and look right on IE or all of them.

I've been previewing the site in both IE and Firefox and it looks good but once uploaded the fonts/colors/look all change =/
