simple web design software
What is the easiest software to get for creating a simple (non-preset templated) website?

I have several large websites (mySQL, Ajax, php heavy type sites) that I had created by engineers/web developers. I want to tie all my sites together by a simple web site – but I want to create it myself. I do not want to use anything that only offers pre-designed templates (like the new iWeb from Mac) as I do not want a “theme!”

Can anyone recommend some easy to use software (preferably Mac). I have Adobe CS2, but the web app is not so easy to use.

I could ask my engineers, but I want to learn some basics and try this myself. Any software leads would be great!! Thanks.
Good answers already! I am open to an Template based application like iWeb, but would like it to have a non-themed template. Or a very generic template (which iWeb does not appear to have). I will check out Dreamweaver – it is not part of CS2 (it has goLive, inDesign,etc…)

If you want something easy to use, use Adobe. If you want something simple, use a text editor and learn to create a web site.

You have to learn either to use the program or to write it yourself – there’s no “click here, click there and you have a website” program – unless you want to use something pre-written.

You’re eliminating all the possibilities. You’ll have to change your specs and choose something possible. It’s like asking how I dig a hole without using any machinery and without digging it by hand or using explosives.
