Thanks.

I used Microsoft Word for my current site, but I also write out pages of script in notepad. Word can get annoying, and I plan to redo one of these days... but I am just too busy right now.

I was looking at Illusionfxnet because it had FrontPage Uplaoding...but I'm not sure.
I'm using Microsoft FrontPage, and I don't know what servicecs support it.

WORD FOR MAKING A SITE???
AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaargghh
2 options:
1)Learn HTML (easy, i did it whitout computer)
2)get a wysiwyg-editor, like frontpage(worst), dreamweaver(bad), ... (i don't know any good editors, they all add useless code)

I split the last thread, because this certainly went off topic, and was worthwile in becoming a topic of it's own.

I use Frontpage for my HTML code, and Corel R.A.V.E. for Flash work. I use Corel PhotoPAINT and CorelDRAW for web graphics work.

Good ol' Notepad and IE (for checking work). I'm starting to use HTML-Kit that colour codes the code, and helps form more complex tags. I hate using WYSIWYG editors though, cos you open up the HTML to change something and you have to crawl through 20 lines of crud! MSWord is a good example of that

The one disadvantage to HTML is that unless you are VERY skilled with it, you are limited as to the visual appeal of your layout. A lot of people think that a text based site is great. Personally, if I don't see something visually appealing, such as a slick header ot some well placed pictures, I'll press back unless the site is extremely interesting.

HTML is also being slowly overtaken by XML ans such like

Yes, but with editing programs, like Frontpage for instance, you won't have to worry about that over time, the software gets more sophisticated, taking advantage of more complicated and functional code.

I write out script in Notepad. It is just that I got lazy and didn't want to spend the time writing it out. Word was a quick and easy alternative! I will redo my site when I get the time to do so.
