Re: [LUG] Web development application suggestions...

[andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi all,

> I am after a good (free) web development application, similar to
> dreamweaver. Can anyone suggest such a beast and also where to get it !

I've never seen dreamweaver, but I am in the progress of putting together
a web site for the guest house I am about to buy
(see previous thread - good business software).

Two days ago I only knew that 'html' was a file format used to write web
pages, now I have somewhere near a completed web site

www.andyrlweir.demon.co.uk

I used the tutorials on www.demon.net ->products ->web hosting ->homepages

I started using a text editor to write my html, and a browser to preview
(thats a pretty platform independant development environment)

I am now using 'quanta' just so that I can navigate around the different
files easily, but 'screem', and 'bluefish' seem to do pretty much the same

for the most part, I just cut and pasted the tutorial examples, then
hacked my own data into the slots so I didn't feel the need of a
WYSIWYG editor

I hope this is of some help.

ps: if any html wizzards want to send comments on my html please feel free
it works on mozzila, opra, konqueror, IE, and even lynx, but I've not done any 
reading on compliance yet.

cheers
