what web authoring tools do you use

[Kath]

Wow.... you guys have me strolling down memory lane today - lol

It's nice to see that there are many more hand-coder diehards out there than I'd been led to believe. I was told that everyone used Dreamweaver or some other WYSIWYG program and that I was a control freak for doing it by hand.

I used Notepad for the first few years and then someone turned me on to Note Tab Pro. I still only use the hand code half (I know... old dogs... lol), but I like how it pops the various elements into color so I can spot them out easier when making adjustments - that is a helpful feature. I tried the auto-correct function a few times and found it UN-helpful, so I still take care of that kind of stuff on my own.

I started with Paint Shop Pro - I think it was Rowdy who sent me my first bootleg of version 2 or something like that YEARS ago. Then a good friend told me to get a "real" program and I broke down and grabbed PhotoShop and have never looked back.

I also still like WSFTP versus all those other proggies with all the bells & whistles so maybe I am a little too old school.

Anyway, that's what works for me. Really... it's nice to see so many others that do HTML by hand!
