I used Microsoft Frontpage for about 2 years. I thinked it was great at the time. But then i tryed out Deamweaver for about a week, and i liked it. So then i began to use Dreamweaver and now i've used it for.. maybe 3 years? It have worked great for me, i've tryed some other editors but Dreamweaver are the editor i like the most!

For pics i'd recommend Photoshop. Thats the only program i've ever used besides paint to edit my pictures! Razz

I think dreamweaver is great for css and html. Its just not what you want if your doing php, mostly because it doesnt have a class browser or anything else to show you all available methods. You have to search through the project yourself

Dreamweaver

Postby finnonofdundee on Thu May 11, 2006 8:57 pm

I'm a fan of dreamweaver too, however i quite like some of the features of NvU and think that it is a great newbie editor and i find it really good for droping code into specific place via the insert html option. Maybe not so good for every day designing but very good for maintance and playing around with.

Dreamweaver is one of the best, and its not so hard for the begginers.
I never readed anything about dreamweaver, and i dont know HTML very good, but i build realy nice thingies in Dreamweaver.
I think everyone should use it Razz
Affcourse if you dont have DW, you can allways use some fancy small WYSIWYG program, that you can download from the net
I must sat i love that web page editor that you get integrated in Mozilla, its realy realy nice for some thingies, for simple stuff to do.
im lazy to build that fancy sign Razz

I think programs like Frontpage and Dreamweaver are only for beginners, but to simplicity is much better. I personally use Vim (http://www.vim.org) which is an no-nonsense editor for all types of files!

I use, in this order: Either dreamweaver or Nvu to get the visual idea down, then I'll use XEmacs to do maintaince and whatnot until I need to add a section or whatnot, but I really try to avoid making websites from scratch.
Plone anyone? <3

Notepad all the way, has never crashed or caused errors for me Very Happy

I use dreamweaver for trying certain things and analysing its code but I prefer to write in notepad.

Well Dreamweaver and Photoshop cost pretty much. I use Linux and for webpages I use NVU.It's great.User friendly.It automatically makes the page W3C compliant and it's pretty much all you need.As for graphics there's the Gimp.I personnally think that it's much better than photoshop.But if you like photoshop's interface then you could use GimpShop, a kind of mod to the interface.

Editor to setup a webpage?

Postby lyndz on Wed May 24, 2006 2:19 am

I use textpad because it's a general purpose editor for plain text files. You can also add addons like for php coding,perl and more for easy and faster to use. Im used and comfortable in using textpad.. It's good! Smile Smile

I'm not sure if this was mentioned in other replies, but if you wanted a website set up instantly, which can be easily customised for a cs clan i'd have a look at e107! http://e107.org

Its bascially a content management system written in php, using the open source mySQL database system for content storage. It's completely free, totally customisable, and in constant development!

You can download alot of plugins to go on your site which can be found at http://e107coders.org/

For example your clan you could have wars listed, so visiting clans can submit matches using rwar or a member of the clan enters the details, ur players can list if they are avl, leader picks the team and then the outcome of the game can be entered. i.e the scores, result, report, and links to screenshots / demos
