Auhg! DON'T SAY THAT! Netscape works GREAT if you know how to write correct HTML. Nothing should be optimized for ANYTHING. Check out www.w3.org if you want to learn correct HTML.

I, for one, use a text browser half the time...not much is 'optimized' for lynx.


And I agree...Opera is awesome :) Browsers with MDI view are the best...too many popups? just close the main browser...all gone!

i just realized that there isn't adobe golive 6.0 listed as one of the poll choices... that's a great program, and unlike dreamweaver, you need to know some html before you can just pull off a website. in fact, using photoshop, golive, livemotion, and illustrator is a pretty phat combination. of course, you do need the flash mx to make it all pretty.

Yes ofcourse, as i said in my other posts my website team is going to work on the compatibility for other browsers. Right now it only supprts IE in nexxt few months it will be compatible with mozilla, Netscape and Opera.
But i still preffer IE anyday..

i had used FrontPage and notpad in the past. but since school has such good deals on software at school, i was able to purchase Macromedia Studio MX for the price of $100. im using Dreamweaver and and Flash on our new site :cool:

Yeah.
There are things that are specific to certain browsers, to please those browsers. they arent w3 compliant, but they make it work on all browsers, and dont cause too many problems on those browsers that dont use/understand that particular tag.

Hrm. This is really going to take a while to make my site W3C compatible :) I have LOTS of errors. (I code incredibly quick...it's always messy. For writing my page in about 2 days, it's not all that bad.) I tend to skip using quotes and use the div tag in the wrong place. I also forget things like putting alt in my img tag (and I'm even a console user! *gasp*)

And so the journey begins just to put a little W3C check on my site :)

CHAOS 131 is all done in frontpage, basicly beacuse its easy and It works welll with angelfire (our host), if anyone out there can tell me a add-free, FTP enabled, and has 500meg per month min. that would be awsome, and it has to be free of course!

i dunno if you can find that mattk. i recommend Ventures Online. They are Cyber Blue's host as well as the host for Chief Delphi. They have very good customer service and support. They have never not been able to solve one of my problems. Im sure Brandon could also set up a deal with you :)

Hmmm....If I were to do the web site I would definitely have to do most of it in flash, cuz I absolutely love it. Flash MX, is, in my opinion, one of the most fun programs out there to build stuff in. If I do it, however, my site probably won't be too dial-up friendly, so Ill probably learn dreamweaver or something to make an HTML section. Yeah, our website is www.hollandfirstrobotics.com but I dont think anything is there at the moment.

Everyone seems to think that writing code "Hardcore" in notepad, or vi, seems to be the "Coolest" way or something :D Granted, when you SSH to your webserver, it's all you have, but at your PC, it's nice to have some tools. Personally, I write a lot of C code, and I HATE writing C code in vi, or Pico. When I had to SSH onto MSU's server to write one project, it was like hell. I'm using MSV6 right now, and I write my CGI scripts in C, mostly because it's what I know, and I like writing in it. I'm currently learning PHP, because it's similar, but because I don't currently have a good reference for the PHP API's, I don't really like using it. I do all my web design in DreamWeaver, although I don't use all of their tools.

I wrote my own mud client, and it reads in room files, and I even wrote a room editor so I didn't have to do it by hand, and the rooms are fairly simple, mostly because I can write the editor in 30 minutes, and save time later. I dunno, just my spiel.

Peronally, i like notepad, but i like Font Page too.

It's like the way drafting came along. First the pencil and paper, than a straight edge and a slanting table, and than a computer program.

It is all to help making web pages much Faster and easier. So what if we take the "cheater's way-side" to some people, but that is in human's evolution. Rember, "LIFE ALWAYS CHOOSES THE EASIEST WAY TO LIVE" your ego just makes it take the hard way...

(i don't mean to sound like i am flaming anyone, but this topic has come across me and my friends and i have been a little mad at this...):D

My teams got 2 websites. primarily b/c one of the websites that is made is run off of a home pc. and to make things a little bit better its the main web page for our team. that main web page wascreated with the use of Forntpage and is hoted on a house pc but Yahoo rents the .com service to the person moderating the site. the second site i created was made up from Front Page also but is hosted by tripod and uses cjb.net site redirection services.

:D my site takes up 4 accounts @ tripod. the main index is one account. and then the 2001 2002 and 2003 years have there own seperate accounts. makes for easy updating moderating and if something goes down rather then delete the entire site and do it all over i just delete the portion thats bad and improve it. hey. its just a secondary site that no one looks at unless the main site goes down.

There isn't really anything wrong with using programs to help, but some people just do it completely with it and without much knowledge of coding. Plus, when you look at the computer-generated scripts, they're not by you and quite difficult to look through to find what you need. I think Dreamweaver's a bit too user-friendly... GoLive is what I use to manage websites. As for hosting, I'm soon hosting my website for $2.08/month for 500mb space, 5gb transfer, unlimited pop3, webmail interface, server side, cgi, php, perl, mysql (1), etc. Pretty good since there's a lot of places out there for $8/year domain registration.

WUT IS THAT HOST?!?!?

I'm hosting my site for free! Unlimited bandwidth, unlimited space, unlimited everything. Oh yeah. I own the server :P I have 24/7 live support :P (*waits patiently for October...then I can have an _actual_ server...rather than using my family PC*)
