When I first started using HTML I built my sites in plain text editors such as simple text or notepad. But even in code mode, I find Dreamweaver's color coding, find and replace and clean-up features can be quite useful. Having a copy of Dreamweaver on your computer doesn't substitute for knowledge of HTML, XHTML, CSS, typography, design, marketing, etc., but it is a handy tool to have and works well for people on a fairly wide variety of skill levels. Your hint about finding snippets on the web is well taken. Additionally I find that when learning HTML it is helpful to see what other people are doing, and looking at their source code to see how they've achieved their goals. http://www.heidicool.com/blog/2005/08/31/rediscovering-snippets/comment-page-1/#comment-105 execute Web Development Tue, 20 Dec 2005 08:34:55 +0000 http://www.heidicool.com/blog/?p=20#comment-105 I don't use dreamweaver anymore as I have advanced to a level where I can just read the code and instantly know how it looks and will look like. When you get to that level you probably don't need dreamweaver anymore, since sometimes it doesn't show layouts correctly. Snippets may be useful, but you can probably just search them on a search engine and find many more interesting ones. http://www.heidicool.com/blog/2005/08/31/rediscovering-snippets/comment-page-1/#comment-104 Pat Tue, 01 Nov 2005 20:19:44 +0000 http://www.heidicool.com/blog/?p=20#comment-104 Thanks for posting this!
