Web Design vs web section of P&GD 2013

[bev mcquain]

I hope this isn't a dumb question.
A long time ago, I created websites with Front Page. I am now about to create some new ones with Xara. I don't use the templates, I prefer to start from a blank page. I have recently purchased Photo and Graphic Designer 2013, and am looking for the difference between that and Xara's new Web Designer. My question is two-fold. 1: is there a big difference between the two, aside from the available templates?
2: Is there a widget available in either for displaying forms that the viewer can fill in and click 'submit'?
Thanks, Bev

Hey Bev

I'm not sure what the differences are, but... You can check the Xara website. They usually have a chart or something that shows a features comparison.

And lacking that, you can download the free trial version. All trial versions are fully functional I think. If the widgets and fills and stuff are not available, you should still see the folders.

Past P&GD versions have incorporated all the web features of the previous version of Web Designer, though I believe the 2013 version of P&GD now matches the web features of WD version 8.
