One more comment to the two who voted for "CGI":
CGI is not a language but a web interface. You cannot design a website in "CGI". You can only use CGI to interface with a server-side language such as PERL (what I use), ASP, etc...

Place your attention entirely on my voice and try to ignore all the others. It is important to be able to focus on a single source of information while blocking out all the other things competing for your attention.

Has anyone noticed that certain pre-packaged editors screw up the code, rendering it unreadable to the Notepad user? Check out www.jazzconnections.org (a site I work on) for an example. Some of the pages were done by a friend of mine with a program and the code is so horrible!! Arg, frustrating...

www.kineticknights.com is all done by hand (notepad). I however, did not do the banner.

All of the info is stored in an MS Access 2000 Database. All the coding is done in ASP (and HTML obviously).

I am hoping to get a new design that is easier to navigate.

Feel free to sign up.

www.hiverobotics.com is the webpage I administer for my team... It was written in notepad and the code editor of dreamweaver mx. The (few) images on the site were done with fireworks mx. The site is aproaching the point where the entire thing is generated out of a ms access database on the fly... that would be ideal. I am in the process of integrating a forum, which should be up soon. Oh, and every page in the site should validate as XHTML 1.0. To test that, click the logo at the bottom of the page. If it doesn't come up valid, PLS tell me! ... I notice that ASP isn't on the list at the top and PHP is... that's so sad...

ragex.org/robotics was written in php using vim. I use scp to copy files. And a mysql db holds most of the sites content.

team188.com uses a number of scripts and SSI stuff, much of which, including the forum, was coded by my predecessors. Because of the way they did the site, it'd take me weeks to fix up the HTML and Javascript to something that plays nice with non-Windows/IE machines (you'll cry if you try to validate the site). I personally use Macromedia Studio MX mostly, but I have a number of other editors. FrontPage IMO is the WYSIWYG editor for n00bs, giving garbage code all the time. Anyway, I would love to at least try to do a site in XHTML 1.1/2.0 and XSLTed XML, but I don't have nearly enough time.

Our team is looking for a good, affordable server for our website. If anyone knows any that offer CGI access, no ads, FTP access, etc (the basics), please let me know. We would really like to put our site up soon.

Good luck in your research.

And also, define "affordable"

Well...free is always the best option , but I guess in the range of $50-100 a year. We don't have much money to spend so we need to save wherever we can. I would like to find a reliable server for that price...

Well we use 3D Studio Max in animation and Adobe Photoshop, Illistrator and Premiere. We use Sonic Foundry's Acid Music 2.
0 so we're not totally in Microsoft's pocket (though the X on our caps do look like the X-box logo just don't ell them! )
So there!
