It depends on what kind... A WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get, like FrontPage or DreamWeaver) will probably make creating your site more easy, but they also tend to make it less customizeable than if you do it yourself. In addition, WYSIWYGs don't use valid HTML and often look very strange in different browsers. A plain text editor (like Notepad) will allow you to make your site more how you want it and you have the option of using W3 standards, but anything besides the basics can be hard if you're not experienced with coding on your own. If you haven't done that much coding before, go with a WYSIWYG for now, but look at the actual code once in a while (most give you this option). If you look occasionally then you can see what tags do what things and eventually move on to a plain text.

well dreamweaver though, it accpets alot of the standards of the current coding rules, and now ith dreamweaver 8 comming out it should be up to date with everything that is current, i plan to get along with the new stuff as well, should make my web designing much more effecient, but of course its always good to use the html validater at W3.org that is your best friend ever when designing.

if you are very new, i suggest using microsoft frontpage, it might not be as good as dreamweaver but its easier to use for a beginner. Dreamweaver is more advanced and harder to use, but i think is more accurate...but microsoft fronpage is stil ok, cheaper to  ..and notepad is one to.. but you have no pictures there...i still use frontpage to code my sites, but i make them in photoshop so.. yea..microsoft frontpage comes with the MS Office tools. (word,powerpoint and all that good stuff).. Peace

I wouldn't ever recommend someone use Frontpage - it's one of the worst web design packages out there because of the horrible, non-standard code that it produces.

I also dislike WYSIWYG editors, not only do they make invalid code, they also generate a lot of unnecessary code. The idea of using a WYSIWYG editor to learn coding also not a great idea, it will teach the wrong way to code. I suggest a text editor that has shortcut buttons for the common functions like tables, forms etc that also has a real time previewer. This means you can immediately see the output of your code as you write it and change it so you get the result you want. A very good example of one of these types of editors is Alleycode, it's small, fast and free. You can download it here.

i would suggest a person learns html and css and all those languages first using text editors, and when they get a full understanding use bluefish or dreamweaver.

All the HTML editors are good. But I preffer just text editor. Dreamveawer is goiod. but source getting long. also some javascripts are funny. Frointpage is alright. Nothing is difficult. Easy. But TEXT EDITOR is good. EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEASY. INN'IT

Dreamweaver ist pwnage, as far as WYSIWYG goes. It even manages to produce marginally valid code, which is amazing. (MX 2004 is fairly good, as is MX) Frontpage - should be destroyed, as should Word's web-saving features. Pure, concentrated evil. Another nice WYSIWYG editor is NVU. It's free (as in freedom and price) and while it's still a tad kludgy, if you're not using 'advanced' stuff (like PHP, or tab characters instead of spaces, grr) then it'll do you fine. It words much like Word interface-wise. Personally, though, i do everything in BBedit, merely because it just gets out of the way, unlike Dreamweaver's code view. Also, it has l33t Perl regexps, so i can do things like strip the content out of junky webpages (see w3schools.com for examples) over an entire directory of files - in a few seconds. I wub PCRE's. mizako : vim/emacs? I'm sure once you get used to the fact that it never works to way a n00b would expect it to, it's good. I use pico/nano for my tty editing needs - nothing beats sudo pico for a quick bit of httpd.conf hacking.

Well one of the best ways to figure out what an html editor does, and what it can do for you is to download a demo version of any of the ones that were mentioned above to see which one you like best. I mean they all get the job done, but you may find one that you can work with best. Dreamweaver is the one that most accepted. It's the one that i've had to work with on the job. I've worked in web design for over 6yrs now. working inhouse with design companies and web companies and the accepted standard is dreamweaver. But it's not the easiest out there right now. Also this depends on how much time and effort your willing to put into it. No matter what people say to be a good designer, would mean that you have an interest in design. Not everyone out is a good designer. round

A Small Html Problem

the same thing sometimes when looking at websites which use non-English characters. Funnily enough,
the other day, I looked at a site and the apostrophy ( ' ) was also shown as a question mark.
That is a very common character usually, I would think. I thought it had something to do with the
character encoding settings, and let me also mention I use Mozilla Firefox as my brows...
