Re: Alternatives to Dreamweaver (was: Re: Wine)


Two approches:
1. For creating a single web page: Try AbiWord, with the Save As XHTML
feature. It tends to work well, render decently. It's fine for a quick
page. However,
2. For creating an intricate web site, or a series of web pages, Learn
XHTML, CSS, and perhaps javascript. Code it from scratch in nano, Kate,
Gedit, whatever, because there is no WYSIWYG editor currently in
existence that does everything to quality. I.E. things do not render
currectly cross-platform or cross-browser, pieces of code do not
validate, or perhaps the sources are simply unorganized.
3. If you simply *must* ignore 2, try NVU (which is based on the
original Mozilla Composer). You don't have my blessing.

My friend says that DW has a "template" feature that automatizes building a
website. How would you do that without DW?

I don't know DW, I don't know web designing, but I suspect that this is what
CSS is for, isn't it?

Again, how would you build a large website of similar pages?
