What are the pros or cons to each. I’ve only used front page and I’ve been told that dreamweaver is better just wondering. Thanks!
FrontPage is proprietary software that adds a bunch of unnecessary and non-validated code. Dreamweaver doesn’t add code, you do the code yourself. It’s also better at cross-browser testing since you can add browsers into it. You would do just as well with Coda (Mac) or Notepad ++.

dreamweaver just has more tools and is coded by Adobe now (used to be Macromedia) but i’d say they are better coders then Microsoft.
i don’t really uses ether extensively but it was easier for me to understand and effectively use dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver produces valid HTML code way more often then frontpage does. It’s also very helpful as a javascript syntax checker, webpage validator, and has a templating system to allow you to easily change the look and feel or layout of your website across multiple pages without having to change each and every page.
It would serve you well to become very comfortable with dreamweaver.
