Change in technical development project

After discussing this with a number of people, I have decided to change my technical development project. Previously, I wanted to learn HTML and CSS so that I could make my own website. But I have been encouraged to learn a software instead of having to learn straight HTML. So I am going to learn how to use Dreamweaver and will have a website as my proof of learning the software. I have been told that with its splitscreen capabilities, I would pick up some HTML along the way. Does anyone know the best place to get web space (I don't want to use the library server for my course and personal webpages nor do I want to use the grove account.)? Thanks for everyone's input!

Hi Kathryn.
I'm also interested in good places to get web space (free would be great) so will you let me know what you hear?

Thanks,
Mary

Hi! You mentioned that you didn't want to use your library server space or grove. What about your plaza account with the school? I'm assuming you want free webspace (if you're willing to pay, there's plenty of places available...).
There are many free webhosts, but I would be careful. Some are scams, some are very unstable, some have security issues. If you don't mind ads or limited storage space, you can try some classic free hosting sites. (These have been around for ages..)

Also, I found this site that gives you a summary of many webhosts:
