[QUOTE="CircularSaw, post: 663876, member: 56605"] I really do not recommend using WYSIWYG editors such as dreamweaver and iWeb for the following reasons: 1. WYSIWYG editors will not allow you to make websites that work in all popular browsers. 2. The code created by WYSIWYG editors is not strict validated X/HTML. There will be errors. If you want to create a professional (please note, professional does not mean complicated) website, you are better off getting a book on XHTML and CSS. Using these two languages you can create some very good looking websites. Use DIV's to layout your websites and not tables. Don't make all flash websites, they are not user friendly. Use bits of flash embedded in your XHTML. Validate all your code. See the validators on W3C website. Create all your code in a good text editor. Learn how HTML and CSS interact and work and you'll be a few months away from making professional websites without having to spend any money on expensive design software. Let me know if anything here needs more explanation... [/QUOTE]
