I don't know why anyone would be creating a webpage in HTML anymore.


What language would you use to carry the engines and display the site???

Because our client needed more than just an out of the box template. The
forms in particular are giving me a problem as they are so long and I am
having trouble getting them to "look" nice with the rest of the pages....

A site we did a while back was in two languages and the guy needed to be
able to modify both sites simutanaously, this wasn't in any of the
"canned" programs you use to write typical websites. And the HTML is
just the carrier, the site is HTML, with JS, PHP, and uses extensive CSS..

BTW, since you "don't know why anyone would be creating a webpage in
HTML anymore', what language do you use to carry the engines and display
pages over the net???



There are so many webpage publishing programs available that make it all
so easy and the code is transparent to the user.


Sure, if you want to use a canned site.... BTW, I use Adobe Dreamweaver
CS6 and then my wife takes the code to her text editor and cleans it up...

Back in the mid 90's when I created the original "Boats of Rec.Boats"
website, I did it all in HTML because website publishing programs didn't
exist that I knew of. I had no formal training in HTML and at first
didn't have a clue how to do it. I would go to various existing
websites and look at the "page source" that displayed the website in
HTML. I'd see how the programmers had done certain things and I'd
"borrow" the code to create the website.


So many elements are hidden now, it's a bit different than it was when I
was doing sites back then... And even with the most extensive software,
to go beyond anything basic you do need HTML as a base...

That's back when I had
interest in that sort of thing and had the patience to go through it
all, line by line. I ended up with a huge spreadsheet of code for each
of the pages and the images of boats that people sent in. After a few
years it got to be too much for me to maintain up to date because I
became busy with work related activities and someone was kind enough to
take it over. The original "Boats of Rec.Boats" logo was designed by
the receptionist at my company at the time.

The website still exists but does not include all the original people
and pages it once had. It's about half the size it once was and may be
viewed he

Very few sites are as unimpressive as unimpressive as the website you
have up to "promote" your internet design and resale services. Dated
design, stolen copy, no updates. Great job.

Show us something *you created* that's better, or shut your pie hole or
whatever hole.

===================================

I was referring to generating a website using HTML code directly and
exclusively, without benefit of canned website creation software.
I use canned software now but occasionally modify the resultant code
for specific purposes or reasons. The last full website I did was
for the guitar shop. It was a hack job done using Yahoo's
"Sitebuilder". At one point I started redoing it in a much nicer (I
thought) format using another program with a lot of fancy features but
the customers complained. They liked the simplicity of the original
design and it's ease of use. So, I've left it alone.
