see? I'm growing!  grin

4 years back the &nbsp was like a savior cuz i didnt know how else to jump to the next line and create some space between.

I remember how frustrating it was for me to be in dreamweaver and anytime i hit enter to take me to a new line, it creates a big gap between lines. Then i'll have to go down to formatting properties and change something there to "performatted" then yada yada. . . oh dreamweaver design view, i could sue Adobe for wasting a part of my lifetime  tongue


This would be me in 2030 grin

I dunno where all the &nbsp started from though but pardon me if i'm just bumping into the convo.

What I am about to say is solely my opinion which has been refined overtime from experience and never ending learning.

Web designers misuse tables just the same way they misuse &nbsp

Personally its a turn off for me to check someone's source codes and i'm seeing

This is just unprofessional.

Why can't the
be used?
Why cant padding and margins be used?
Why can't the "spacer.gif" trick be used (if u dunno how to css your way out)?

I mean these are neater sturvs that get the job done across all important browsers.

What u don't write your functions on your own, see me being busy killing myself trying to do that. How do u write them and with wat.enlighten a brother my brother.

And jscript,ain't that the same as javascript but with a shortened j or an i missing something.
Where and how can i lay me hands on an indepth study to understand of that. Do point(oh not polite),do show de way pls.
Well I think I came into this thing at an era when all the hard work had been done by our ancestors. As in, they've written all the functions for us, now its left for us to use and extend the functionalities.

I said jQuery not jScript.  tongue

Yea i think you should just keep going nice and easy with html and css. When you're grounded in those, then you can slap in javascript.

Its a lie,even dual core went thru what i went thru. U see dad even de pro's go thru some mistakes(shouting from the toilet,with the door closed,and the room door also closed and the passage door also closed)hope he didn't hear me.

Ok,i went thru the same oooow,aaaah of dreamweavered in the days of mx,without a knowledge of coding. Just work the graphics and vala. Until while boasting around about it being a pro web designer, i was given someone elses job to edit.(from where i wan begin,this guy wrote it in code and whats <b> suppose to stand for,oh bold.)

Yes i had to return the money(vexingly) and decide to start with handcoding. And so far its given me a better understand of coding in general.

Ok i won't lie,i'm still a sucker for the hints and colour indicators of dreamweaver. For us beginners in design and development it really saves the day,and untold hours of frustration.lol

oh and dual could u recommend a good read on writing ones own functions on javascript and php,cos i seem to be doing fine i using defined function but when i try to create mine it seem like the pc just lifts off and attacks me with eeeh error.
lol funny.
as per functions. I hardly write my own functions. I use jQuery (not a pro in it but i'll be someday) for javascript.
as per php, i havnt written much of my own. I have just written functions for submitting forms to emails or a database or a text file, functions for database connectivity and manipulation.

You should try jQuery grin
I can only regret i just started studying it a relatively short while back.

sorry, dunno why w3c didnt stick to the name = value tradition that was there before even in was born. in css its name:value

WebmastersRe: Unlimited Bandwidth Hosting Cost by DualCore1: 3:09pm On Jan 13, 2010
afam4eva:
The truth about unlimited Hosting is that they are actually not Unlimited. The term "Unlimited" is a gimmick used by web hosting companies to garner as many clients as they want.

If you read the TOS of most of this host companies that offer unlimited bandwidth, you will discover that they protected. meaning that there's a specific amount of bandwidth you must not cross.

If i may ask; what actually do you need an unlimited bandwidth for. if you're building the next face book with loads of traffic then a VPS is your best bet. Forget all this cheap unlimited Hosting that nothing but crap.
Word, brotha.


Owner, as per login and registration requirements. Would you like to explain exactly what you want?
WebmastersRe: Hand Coding And Dreamweaving. by DualCore1: 2:59pm On Jan 13, 2010
lol i like the term dreamweaving.

I will be refering to Dreamweaver as DW, notepad++ as np++, Firefox as FF and Internet Explorer as IE

I use both. However I use np++ a lot more. Granted using DW in Split view is like Heaven  tongue

I prefer writing my stuff in np++ cuz its light and fast. How i work is . . . I do main work on 1st monitor (which in most cases is my laptop's display) and I have FF and IE (and sometimes Chrome) on second monitor. So when i'm working on np++, i hit Ctrl+S (which saves) and i alt + tab to change focus to the browsers on the 2nd monitor and i hit F5 to refresh and see as i make changes to my work.

This works for me.  Someone else may be doing this better with DW, as long as it works for the person, no wahala.

I have to say though that it is after i left DW (which i used from its MX days to its CS4) I realised i didnt know how to write codes to do routine things like add an external style sheet or external javascript. I didn't know how to hand code a table or some stuff like creating forms and input fields. DW spoilt me! Well i corrected all that when i left it and started handcoding from scratch.
Now i dont think i have that patience to wait for dreamweaver to come up with its splash screen then load some stuff just for me to edit a page or something. Can't remember when last i use DW but i think i opened it by mistake a few months back. That's the last i remember. Its on my desktop though wink

You know, in DW these routine things are hidden from you. You just goto Insert and choose what you wonno insert and voila, its their. You can see it with your blurred vision.

Its like you being in the Passenger's seat of a car for years while your bud drives and you always tell yourself "i can drive! i can drive". When you're face to face with the wheels you'll be like . . . "erm dude i know i gotta move this gear but which direction do i really move it to first?"



Bottom line: DW is a tool for the Pros and the yet-to-be-pros alike (i'm in the middle). It all boils down to how you use it.
In my opinion anyone relying on DW's Design view alone is going head-on for a collision.



P.S: I feel more geeky typing stuff than letting DW do the typing  grin grin
