Gary,
the VFP mtdll approach allows you to use Dreamweaver, FrontPage or any other HTML editor to generate HTML templates that are populated with VFP expressions and/or VFP scripts(using the native VFP ExecScript) that are evaluated at run-time. You can also use VFP mtdlls to generate HTML, but, personally, I don't like doing it this way since the 'look and feel' of the page usually is bad.
The plumbing for VFP mtdlls is asp.dll(or the asp .NET dll) which is just another ISAPI connector like foxisapi except that it's included in every copy of windows making installation a lot easier. Frameworks like ActiveVFp make using this approach easier.
VFP mtdlls allow you to learn 1 technology and apply it to ASP, ASP.NET and VFP web services. Also, the web programming is pure VFP, unless you want to add some JavaScript on the client side, which also works well.

>Something like Dreamweaver could be one of the tools in your toolbox for developing the HTML template aspects of your web apps. The other tools you mention like Web Connect, FoxWeb etc., either provide the plumbing for your app and/or a scripting engine to execute Fox code in ASP type pages, as opposed to having to use JavaScript or some other non-Fox scripting language. Which combination of tools thereafter can be a bit of a tough choice.

>With VFP7 and a new start, the "default" route appears to be using ASP.Net. However, that route would suggest using Fox as an MTDLL to house your business logic (or use the Fox OLEDb provider to access Fox data/SP's) and would really leave the scripting and web pages squarely non-Fox. ASP.net supports scripting in the .Net languages and JScript/VB script etc.,
