Ingolme Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Says who?I use Dreamwaver CS4... but I do use it in code view though. Dreamwaver is a great code editor, if you let it be one. However, it's also a decent WYSIWYG editor, which is where its misuse is.Ouch, I was going to change that but then I focused on writing other things. I meant to say that a lot of developers don't use it. It's not a requirement to make professional websites, which is the impression some people have.

thescientist Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I would give dreamweaver credit for being a good code editor and the ability to use FTP right within an explorer window is nice. I did however switch over from that to conTEXT and FireFTP a while ago and it hasn't seemed like much of a change at all. I just can't get conTEXT to indent the way I want to though, which is a tad frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainwater Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Lots of good information in the forum. I now realize I cannot use my current version of DreamWeaver 4, not the CS4, but the old one; so will have to do something else. I will look at the notepad link, and have been looking on tucows at freeware. That is where I found CuteFTP, and it has worked for me for years. I did have to pay a little bit for it as Shareware, and I did have to upgrade it once, but it has been good for eight years. I do not depend on the software to show me how it looks, but do put it into the browser to look at it. Does anyone know where I can get a less expensive, current version of Dreamweaver, or is that something I am not supposed to ask? If so, let me know, and I will edit it out.Dialup has been kicking me off all day, so have not been able to do much today. I live in the woods and need to take a ride to find a connection.

rainwater Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 We talked about tables. I just did a view source code on the home page for w3schools, and it is a table page. I thought with CSS, pages were not supposed to be made with tables. Oh I am really confused.I am now on the CSS tutorial, and am more confused than when I was first learning HTML ten years ago.I will wait until I get all the way through before asking a lot of questions that are up in my brain. Do any of you use tables to make your pages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synook Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 The W3Schools site is old(-ish). You are not supposed to[1][2] use tables for layout, and neither is it considered good practice[3], but some people find it easier, and can't be bothered doing it the other way.
