homepage and frontpage use HTML/XML, java is a scripting language not based in HTML... subtle differences in the first two, the third is completly off subject if you are looking to create a webpage... my advice is to do a web search on W3 and get familiar with HTML/XML

Homepage and Frontpage are programs that can be used to automatically generate a web page (generally in an HTML format). A better strategy to learn, at least until you're familiar with making web pages, would be to open up notepad and a decent HTML tutorial and just play around. Then, you could potentially start using Homepage or Frontpage or Dreamweaver, but if you are going to be doing programming (as opposed to design), it is still best to do that portion in notepad, as these programs' automatic code generators tend to make inefficient code.

Java is a completely different concept altogether. It is a programming language that can be compiled into executables or applets. Applets can then be embedded into a web page using HTML.

If your goal is to design web pages, learn HTML (and CSS if you have the time), get comfortable with making web pages in notepad, then decide if you want it done automatically for you or not. If your goal is web programming, then maybe you should learn PHP, JavaScript, or VBScript. Java is the last thing to learn in the progression.

HTML = Hypertext Markup Language
CSS = Cascading Style Sheet

You should look at some of the tutorials at www.w3schools.com

Start with learning HTML as that is the basis for all these programs, and Web sites in general. Frontpage and Dreamweaver are just powerful programs that can do the HTML automatically, but it's still best if you know HTML. Java is a more advanced programming language, similair to c++. Good Luck!
