Keep plugging away and you'll eventually be able to form a mental image of it in your mind as you work...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At least I do anyways... Do I have a problem or something? Most people I know have to view it in a browser to see what they code :-?

I always use notepad for doing minor edits and whatnot, but WYSIWYG is sooo much easier for tables!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Merc, I'm very dissapointed in you!

That website hasnt been updated for ages. and with the exception of flash its pretty much valid. pffft

I use EditPlus, which is basicly just notepad but colour coded.

 

 

 

WYSIWYG programs make horrible code and you almost always have to sift thru it all in EditPlus anyway to clean it up. Its much easier building from scratch using valid code from the start.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Microsoft Frontpage is one of the worst "web page maker" programs and produces code for Internet Explorer only and most of the time it looks messed up in every other browser. Dreamweaver is good but people start to rely on it for everything which is bad. DW puts

and tags all over the place.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Learn HTML, CSS and some basic PHP and pay the $5 or whatever it costs for EditPlus.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What he said^

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You really should educate yourself more, it's obvious you haven't got a clue. Go to the bookstore and read some books... That's free..

I use notepad, when I get around to doing a little simple HTML :)

1st page 2000 - similar to EditPlus - just a notepad with syntax highlighting. Sometimes I use Adobe Imageready for imagemaps, rollovers etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Everything I've coded for tip.it has been hand coded - how do you think the home page is so small compared to the old one? As well as plenty of css, its down to 25k from 55k.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*fluffles css* :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for validation, pfft :P As long as it works in all modern browsers, its fine :)

lol thats my motto ;)

I use notepad, Scite and dreamweaver.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good luck with whatever you do. :\

I use dreamweaver but used to (know how to just code the html myself ( I still remember small chunks of it.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PDM

If I'm doing a decent sized PHP script, I use Zend Studio(http://zend.com/store/products/zend-studio/). If I'm just doing a small amount of PHP with HTML, I use Notepad.

If your willing to learn HTML the cheepest thing to use is Notepad(Being free and on every or atleast almost every microsoft computer.)

 

 

 

Front Page(which I use, though my sites aren't very good) is easy but you have to dish over some cash in order to get it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

for uploading your sites to servers I use http://www.Angelfire.com as they support Microsoft frontpage. Then I use http://www.dot.tkas my web address thingy. lol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you don't want to mess with much and you just want something simple...I'd suguest http://www.freeservers.com.They have pre-made templates and you just choose which one you want and what your content is.

 

 

 

if you use freeservers they do not have a forum available(they do have a guest book) so i'd suguest linking from the main page.

 

 

 

If you want some extra stuff for your site try

if you want a forum I've used

I've used all of these before, and all excepting Frontpage is free to everyone.

I use Notepad2 (http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html). It is a neat tool for making webpages...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hand code the lfew webpages I've made.
