Sarah O'Keefe gave a pretty good overview of the strengthand temperment of this
product. As an everyday Joe user
who has converted about 2500 pages of frame files to HTML with it,
I can add that my favorite WebWorks features are:

* Graphics can be customized, in terms of size, placement, etc.
* Tables can be customized, for example you can specify cell colors.
* Macros can be made of macros
* Quadralay support is top notch
* They were one of the first vendors to offer JavaHelp, and their
   JavaHelp template works well. Of course, JavaHelp itself isn't quite
   ready for showtime yet ...

Not really ... she still thinks HTML is some sort of strange football league :)

Yes, my local junkyard dog is a WebWorks junky!

Take a day or two and learn HTML, if you don't already know it.
