What is your favourite web design tool?

Paul.... learn Dreamweaver.. and stop using other editors, with DW you can do almost anything..

[Paul_KY]

I've tried. I'm just too dumb :bang:

DW MX
Once you use it there's no way back. To get into it from scratch takes a web designer (with only minimal coding knowledge) about 2 hrs to learn enough features to be producing PDG pages with little effort.

What if you have ZERO coding knowledge and do not wish to focus on coding at all? Would DW still be a good tool?

Paul

Yes, it also WYSIWYG, you don't have to know coding

Ovi

I've tried DW twice and simple things like moving images/text, seem hard :bang: . I guess I've just been spoiled with the current editor I use, and it's ease.

Not for long though :brow:

I use DW with dual monitors with WYSIWYG on one screen and HTML on the other screen.

If you don't run to dual monitors, DW allows you to split the screen to achieve the same.

This makes it a prety good way to learn HTML as you see the code change when the WYSIWYG view is changed.

"If you don't run to dual monitors, DW allows you to split the screen to achieve the same."

Yes, I understand that. As stated, I've tried the program twice now.

"This makes it a prety good way to learn HTML as you see the code change when the WYSIWYG view is changed."

If one had no intent or desire to learn HTML, would DW MX still be the very best WYSIWYG?

Yahoo's editor is outstanding. The only problem I'm running into there is, it won't allow me to, "justify" the text. Even when I justify it in word, then copy and paste, it just adjusts to, "left center" :curse:

Oh, what a journey this is indeed.

If one had no intent to learn HTML, one would continue to produce web pages that were below ones design capability.

No WYSIWYG editor is perfect and never will be. the ability to carry out HTML tweaking is essential otherwise "The tail wags the Dog".

In addition implementation of CSS with all the essential box model hacks for cross browser conformity is WELL beyond any WYSIWYG editor.

"HTML tweaking is essential otherwise "The tail wags the Dog"."

This goes against the grain of everything we've accomplished the past 5 years.

I respectfully disagree.
