Jonathan chased away fuel crises that tormented Nigerians for decades. Some sections of Nigeria used the media they control to tarnish Jonathan's image worldwide.

Another section used BH violence and helped with negative publicity by the other section that controls the media made the electorate reject Jonathan.

Let's pray this fuel scarcity does not remain like the decades before Jonathan became president.

wat is dis one saying ?

It seems you are not getting me right...

I said something about when you get lot of things in your hands to do under a limited time.. Then dreamweaver comes to the rescue.

I am a student of the old schools of thought that likes to take the longer and hard road because we believe it will make us hard, and flexible and help build our endurance... Applying this to web development, i most atimes don't like things to be made easy for me rather that i will make things easy for myself through experiments, mistakes, corrections, and endurance. I think that is why i am a self-learner.... I think that is why i didn't attend any computer college yet i once taught in one. I think that is why i own a wordpress website, bought a domain, and hosted it all by myself in a day and now am taking good care of it...without anybody help.

Well, our choices are different...but what i emphazise more on, is that beginners need not learn with any wysiwyg programs because they will get to miss a lot..... Agreed?

And i am telling u Dreamweaver is not a WYSIWYG , it is an IDE just like Visual Studio . are u saying people who code using Dreamweaver are lazy .

When i open DW i meet an empty workspace and i write my code , same thing i can do on notepad , notepad ++ or any other editor .

I don not understand what you mean when you refer to DW as a drag and drop software

I know about 3 top developers in australia still using DW as their IDE , are you any better than them

Not at all because dreamweaver has a wysiwyg interface and a text-editor one too. But i hope you have coded with notepad not notepad++?

Notice the difference? It is what brings out the intellect in you and fires your imagination and inspiration up...sending it on a marathon race... Have you been in a situation of debugging a badly written website with a notepad not notepad++ or sublime or any other text-editor that highlights syntax for you? You should know what am saying if you have because that is the most boring and hard thing to do. But after getting it right, trust me, you have attained a new level in your web development cycle.

Kudos...


so i should migrate to using Notepad against DW to attain a new level in web development when i have tons of uncompleted projects .

i have used notepad and notepad ++ when i started out . nowadays i need to get the job done faster which DW helps me achieve. what do i achieve in using notepad or notepad ++ at my present stage ?

listen guys...

Be it as it may, coding by yourself using notepad, notepad++, sublime and other plain text-editors is the best... You have to admit the truth.

A beginner that learns with a wysiwyg program will always be a beginner. If you want to challenge your creative mind go raw....code raw...code from scratch.

I have nothing against wysiwyg programs because they really help a lot... Actually they are tremendous..

How will you react when you get an ecommerce site to bbuild from scratch under one week? wysiwyg programs will come to the rescue.

But i still say this....wysiwyg programs have limitations...there is no doubt about that...there are some certain functions you need to raw code for you to get your desired effect. That is why every pro webmaster have to get at let one of this wysiwyg programs to help him when faced with limited time, but you don't have to rely on it.

Now to the beginner and would be webmaster i say unto you.... Desist and run away from any wysiwyg programs if you really want to be a terrific webmaster. Not only that, by not using wysiwyg programs you fasten your learning rate and expands your creative mind. Later on when you have/mastered the art of web designing you can then start using it as a helper to you not as a must for you.

I wrote an article concerning this debate on [url=w3programs.com/teach-yourself-web-designing-vs-wysiwyg-programs/]teach yourself web designing vs WYSIWYG programs[/url]. Check it out and understand the issue better. Also every would be webmaster and beginners ought to check [url=w3programs.com/teach-yourself-web-designing-vs-wysiwyg-programs/]this[/url] out because it is worth it.

So what you are saying in essence is that you can't code raw with Dreamweaver ?

I have used dreameweaver friend. And am not a pro designer. I also didn't copy and paste any article.
Admitted, I read your post in a hurry. Would have really written a longer post but am tired, so you win. I don't have the time to waste discussing dreamweaver. Just don't misguide beginners. Have a good nyt.

You are definitely a beginner .

Somebody just asked you up here, does DW generate your codes for you in code view?

If the code you created is W3c incompatible it is your fault not Dreamweaver's.
You have stubbornly kept mentioning WYSIWYG and it is suddenly becoming clear to me that either you have never opened DW code view or you have not even used DW at all.

I have used your Sublime text and it is also good but there are things DW can do for me that it cant.

So my question: do you know what DW code view is?

To me it seems the guy has never installed , opened or used DW @ all , and he is here writing rubbish . To me DW is an editor not even a WYSIWYG .

I'm pretty sure that all these dudes criticising dreamwaver probably used below version cs3. You should try the new dreamweaver cc. Its awesome. It has a list of all php functions and their description and can be accessed in real time while coding. It's predictive features also includes a huge library of jquery functions and also css functions.


And for all those shouting bootstrap. Dreamweaver shows predictive list of all css styles in any css file linked to a html document and even JavaScript functions. What more could a good web developer ask for.

I haven't even talked about the fact that dreamweaver lets you build responsive sites by switching between different resolutions.

It's only in naija that people criticize something just because they don't like it. Most of those criticizing dreamweaver are bringing up baseless arguments.


As long as I find myself developing websites, I don't see myself leaving dreamweaver.

U just nailed it

Dw isn't the best editor and isn't close, if you think it's the best, then it's because you use the drag and drop feature (WYSWYG)

so every one using DW uses the design view how do u even think ?

check the image below and see the different option for workspace selection DW has .

I use DW when i code and it saves me tons of headache and gets the job done . i cn also use Notepad ++ and sublime .

pls note it is WYSIWYG and not (WYSWYG) ..

Keep booming in your ignorance, that's why we keep having ugly, static websites. I can't point to one single unique, dynamic Nigerian website. Few are built with ordinary bootstrap.

Even the best e-commerce websites we have here, jumia and konga, are hardly responsive on capable mobile Web browsers.

We build websites in this country like we are building it for 2008 opera mini mobile browser. Smh

@onyengbu

You are newbie.

I am very sure you know nothing about css frameworks, or how to build dynamic, responsive websites

Dreamweaver is not built for serious Web designers, it is only in Nigeria that this is still a debate.

You make me laugh , how does an editor relate with crappy websites

Only computer operators use dreamweaver and drag and drop GUI softwares.. Real programmers use any txt editor like notepad or notepad ++ or bluefish or sublime etc

so if you are working on a big project you use Notepad as your editor ?

Your logic does not really stand. How can you say it was not built for webdesign yet it does all the webdesign stuffs and even more. You cited notepad++ yet I can name things DW can do that notepad++ cant and yet I cant see those that notepad++ can do that DW cant.
Again, saying that web design community rejected DW is an assertion you cant prove.
If it was built for graphic designers, how come many newbies that use DW cant even open all the graphic design tools you mentioned. Its easier to say that it was built for newbies than saying its for graphic designers.
All in all, one of the things that matter most to me in my line of work is speed of coding and DW help to achieve that better than notepad++. No need to come here and claim I dont use DW because it might make me look like a newbie.

Tell am my brother .. i ve been using DW for 4yrs now , i am a pure coder , i don't see myself switching to Notped ++ or sublime . I have never switched to the Design view of DW withing these years !

Trust me sir, dw was built purely to serve as 'a web design graphic tool'. The major focus was actually the design view. Adobe added the code view because it wil be wierd to have it without a code view. Adobe specializes in graphics software. Raster graphics (photoshop), vector graphics (illustrator), magazine graphics (indesign), web graphics (dream weaver), video graphics (premiere), etc.

Dw is good, but web design community world wide rejected it because it was not built for them. Adobe built it for 'designers.'

You dont know what you are saying , i am a pure coder and i use DW .
