Learn to code in HTML because it gives you so much more control over the site! | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 Community Owner | Community Owner Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 | search yahoo or google for WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) its like Front Page, something that i think you'd like heh | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 Member | OP Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 | Hmmm thanx for the tip gizmo, and yeah html seems to do the trick, its such a [censored] doing all that though... but gotta work hard for something to actually turn out good :p | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 Member | OP Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 | wait, what are all these other thing im seeing on WYSIWYG, tarantula, and all these other ones, Im willin to give it a try, but whats with all those other names... | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 574 Likes: 1 UGN GFX Whore | UGN GFX Whore Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 574 Likes: 1 | Hrm. I personally think it would be better to learn html rather than use a program for several reasons, one being that it is a good start if you want to get into programming. Another is the control. Also, learning to use a complex program like Frontpage would almost be harder than learning html, and you don't get as much out of it as in writing it yourself. And from some of the stuff I have seen made by wysiwyg's, it looks like it could be optimized alot more than it is. I recommend downloading Dreamweaver for a 30 day trial from macromedia's website. (i am not supposed to say i support warez) Also, if you decide to go with html, download Note Tab Light from http://www.notetab.com. It is a nice text editor with some html features and a bunch of stuff they tell you about at the site. Good luck to you. | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 61 Junior Member | Junior Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 61 | The Problem is that if you want a website to look good and professional is it really complicated if not impossible to do it with HTML. I mean come on, do you really think any webmaster still sits there with notepad open and types in codes for how long a colum should be an ****. Hell no, they all use Dreamwaver nowadays. btw, thats the best WYSIWYG prog you can get, jus download it on kazaa.
p.s. html is not really programming, it's even below scripting. If I was you i'd rather use dreamwaver to make a good looking website then learn VB script to make the website usefull, that's more like programming. | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 Community Owner | Community Owner Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 | lol i can't stand dreamweaver, i'd just rather use ****in Front Page XP, lot easier and more features | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 Member | OP Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 536 | Hmm where do i start, lets see, ok Cold Sunn, if i was gonna get dreamweaver id rather get the crack, not just have it for 30 days :p, but i think ill stop by notetab.com see how that is, i will seriously look into that thanx, now AK about kazaa.. two words, "spy ware", and gizmo, yeah a lot of people dont like dreamweaver either :P well anyway, Im still learning how to work with html, but i guess its one of the best ways from what you're all telling me. | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 599 UGN's Resident Homo | UGN's Resident Homo Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 599 | First, you should learn to make pages with html, just because that is how you will earn respect. However, when actually making a page you want others to view it is better to use a WYSIWYG editor. My fav is Netscape Composer, it comes free if you download the netscape browser. But don't forget to have a good understanding of what is going on behind the scenes because that will help you if you ever have a problem with your page. It will allow you to open the source and troubleshoot it easier than can be done on the WYSIWYG. Thats my advice.

html is not a programming language it is markup, and it sux, and it is easy - so learn html!
if u want to do the complex stuff that web pages all over the world do now like UGN, the learn about databases with php or asp or cgi(i would not bother learning cgi), now you are getting into programming.
but well for an easy one with everything put on your plate i suggest a program such as codecharge! its free, it does not do my job but it might do yours!
ohh yeah gizmo, pred is right frontpage does just suck the lamas *** ! and instead of dreamweaver i suggest strongly ultradev! and if ur still not happy shut up and use notepad thats how i started in the old days!!!
chau
ps. i am not queer unlike crime so nicely made it seem!

ROFLMAO, lookes like you know what you're speaking about (NOT!) Well Did you see 7 year ago that advanced websites as nowdays? No. It was all very basic nothing graphicly. So it wasn't that hard to create websites in an editor. Next time think before you post or STFU!

I think it took me 2 days. Plus it will help you when you start adding Java script and other elements to your site. If I were you I would do this Learn HTML Learn CSS Learn Java Script (Little more advanced) Learn to use DHTML Learn a little perl Learn C Get pro hosting Learn XHTML Learn XML Learn Flash (whole different ball game but Java script can be used here) So either start in the webdesign forum with the tut I posted or start here where I did. http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/teachingtool/html.html | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 562 UGN Supporter | UGN Supporter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 562 | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 48 Junior Member | Junior Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 48 | Creating dynamic sites with a WYSIWYG (or whatever!) is close to impossible because of their inability to do coding stuff. Look at www.scallion.sp00fed.net! I coded it all by hand! No wysiwyg could do that.

Because if there is missing options in the fp or the program you use or somehing dont work out right then you can edit yourself. It makes It alot easier to use a program and still use html to fix it up and finish it up.
