Best HTML editor

[UWphotoNewbie 1]

What is the best software to use to manage your homepage?

 

I'm trying to put together a basic website for myself and my family to share photos and information. Nothing too fancy but it would be nice if I could update it easially. I want to have some photo galleries with thumbnails to cllick for larger photos. I want to host it from my ISP account rather than paying extra for something like P-Base. Take a look at the link in my signiture to get an idea of what I want. Obviously its far from complete but the structure is there.

 

Ten years ago I was using Web Weaver and doing most of the HTML manually. I don't want to be doing that anymore.

 

The one I have I created in Word. It doesn't let me easially add many features and worst of all it re-names all the images in the page and puts them in a sub-folder for each page which is not common to all the pages. This is a pain to upload and images are duplicated for each page.

 

Thanks

I'd say one of the best is Microsoft Frontpage.

I prefer to work directly with the code so I use Macromedia's Homesite:

For those who prefer a template based approach, I'd recommend NetObjects Fusion:

or for the best of both worlds Macromedia's Dreamweaver with Homesite:

for automatic generation of galleries, jalbum.net can hardly be beat

 

Also, the html editor in Mozilla (the bigger one, not firefox) is quite handy to use (clear code, + a wysiwyg part)

Totally of topic to U/W photography but since that thread is related so:

I hope to start selling few products on the net and I need an e-commerce solution for the billing and registration process, anyone here have an experience with that area? Any recommendations?

I am a dreamweaver fan for html work ... enables you to advance and stay basic ... but is slightly more than just a html basic editor ... homesite is just that.

Wow, thread from 2005?

 

I still use Dreamweaver for my main sites and jalbum for my galleries. Love jalbum LOTS!

 

I've dabbled with iWeb and a couple others, however, and been pretty pleased with their ability to put out a very nice looking site. Not much help if you're not on a Mac, of course...
