Do you use MS FrontPage?

[Eric]

I currently use MS FrontPage for all of my websites. I am wondering if any of you use it, and what you think of it? Any better alternatives, etc? Some good addons,etc?

I too use FrontPage.

I learned to code with NotePad but anyone that thinks it's still the best way to code is either stubborn or a sucker for punishment.

:lol:

Dreamweaver will produce XHTML Transitional code if you choose. If you have to have XHTML Strict code you still have to edit code but Dreamweaver will have done most of the work for you.

Does the latest version of FrontPage produce XHTML Strict code?

 

[Veolus]

What is the latest version? :D

 

[hbalagh]

What is the latest version? :D

FP 2005 was released not too long ago. I have 2002, I'm outdated, lol.

Any way that can easily turn your dirty code into XHTML code, tabbed and everything?

 

[Veolus]

I also have FP 2000 :lol:

Those of you who use Notepad, check out Crimson Editor. It color codes, tabs (like Firefox) and other cool stuff. CE is the best, IMO. I also do image work/slicing in Fireworks which is an excellent program.

I would have to agree, Crimson Editor is AWESOME!! You will never use notpad again. I especially like how it let's you directly FTP pages from your site. As long as you save your page with the correct extension it will color code everything nice and pretty for you

I would only recommend MS Frontpage for complete beginners (please note that I am in no way saying that you are a complete begninner if you are using it) for the simple reason that it is simple to use, however, it creates loads of extra HTML which is not needed.

I just remembered this in another thread. About Dreamweaver, it's expensive, but if you're a student, the Academic Superstore can give you a great rate on it.
