I think most of the budget-end tools will be much of a muchness - they will all have strengths and all have weaknesses. Webstyle is less of a building tool - it is good however for creating a design that you then finish off and build in, for example, Dreamweaver. I used Hotmetal for years (sadly defunct? Version 6.0 was the last.) AceHTML is one that inspires love and hate!

You would be best to use whatever you can get at a decent price, learn it, dip into the html as John says, learn to make the graphics in XaraX as you are doing. And then when you hit that "I wish it could do" moment, dig deep into your pocket and buy Dreamweaver. Avoid thinking that another budget product will solve your problem - instead it will introduce more!

Good luck
