In otherwords, he's looking for a "drag n drop" solution to web building. I
don't know how many people here have used Frontpage but I can say that it
does make websites easy. I can almost bet he needs these requirements:

1. Built in templates to provide the look.
2. Easy to add text and images using a drag n drop method for images and a
"insert paragraph and/or table" method.
3. He doesn't want to be bothered with code.

That's kinda what I gather.

>From what I know of Linux, there's not many that will be "Frontpage Clones".
They all require some type of coding knowledge and the graphical interfaces
are less-than favorable. (To a Frontpage user.) Most of them are more 
similar
to Dreamweaver. Anyway, I don't think you'll find what you're looking for in
Linux as far as web development.
