Hi Bruce,
I have been using the Mozilla "Composer" software that is part of the "SeaMonkey" suite. It is a very simple word processing type of interface and works fine for composing html pages and doing simple stuff like inserting photos and links. I don't do much more than that so I can't speak to its abilities to do anything more exotic. I can't even say if it does FTP functions by itself since I use CuteFTP to upload my stuff. I originally used FrontPage 97 but found it to be kind of cumbersome for my primitive needs. Mozilla Composer has a nice simple interface that I was comfortable with in no time at all. The complete SeaMonkey suite is free and a bit of background can be seen here:
