Hope this helps a lot of people thanks. I enjoyed this and please say if you want more threads like videos and more! Thanks again!

Good infio....Thanks

Your welcome pm me if anyone wants more info about stuff like this ill be more than happy to help

Number one: dafuq is wrong with you? My eyes are like turning inside out just by looking at your post and sig...
I don't even want to see one of your homepages....

Number two: did you seriously tell people to use w3schools and hope that people would thank you? They could google that and be faster! And wouldn't have problems with their eyes.
Also w3schools is CRAP to learn basics from. See w3fools!

Number three: why not use Notepad++? Or NetBeans? Or one of the other much better free HTML editors?

You also just could have used the search function and you would have found the following Thread which imho should be a sticky:

Hey,
recommending Netbeans for HTML "beginners" is just like recommending kindergarten kids to play with a checkers board instead of the play-doh.
Netbeans will overwhelm even mediocre HTML "scripters". The whole stuff you don't need (talking about the project system, versioning, templates [angularjs, modernizr], responsive web design, JS-specific features (unit tests) and so on and so forth) will come in from time to time but even I as a fairly seasoned web developer don't enjoy using Netbeans, as I'm not into learning it.
Netbeans surely will give you a productivity boost once you're 100% in it, but apart from that using Netbeans (except for maybe..Java, haven't tried it for anything apart from Web Development [HTML, CSS, PHP]) will..
1) not lead to successful development
2) not lead to funny web development either
I'm not really sure if you've actually used Netbeans :rolleyes:
Notepad++ is a "good" recomendation. In general, text editors are a good recommendation (even though I prefer to use Sublime Text II but I won't start the debate on the best text editors [vim!!1111!!] here now). But for a damn BEGINNER, the OP is right: Dreamweaver is perfect, when used correctly. The split view is good to figure what elements do what and to get a neat sort of "overview" about how your page might look. Code changes are reflected really fast and the first steps won't be disappointing when you actually can see that you're creating something.
I, personally am currently using this "tool box":
Sublime Text 2 with emmet.io for general file editing (html,css,js,php) and rapid development (Emmet) of layouts and stuff like that and Navicat for database development.
Once you're good at it, you can quit using Dreamweaver as you'll be annoyed by it SO fast.
greets,
Cooltek
P.S.: can't believe I'm writing this only to procrastinate..:(

wat?
I was just talking about using NetBeans. Not employing every damn feature it can offer. NetBeans is nothing more than an editor with code highlighting. Also it has some interesting features. Yes, I use many of them. But still. It's an editor appropriate for beginners, too.
Please don't talk bullshit. I get the feeling that you just took a look at the features and have never even touched this program.

Are you serious? What if I told you, that there is a tool called BROWSER?
And DW is absolutely the opposite of perfect. I have already tried this life view just to see that Chrome, FF and IE all displayed the page completely differently and often broke the layout completely - although it was all right in DW! I do not make a homepage for DW. I make a homepage for those browsers.
Also DW costs MonEY. Just because someone wants to learn a language does not mean they want to spend a fortune on it.
And I also think that DW is especially bad for beginners, because they tend to use the WYSIWYG editor.
To put it in a nutshell, recommending it is really dangerous and can lead to painfull frustration later on.


As for Sublime: yes, it's indeed a great tool. I also said "all the other better editors". Sublime just does not come to my mind at once cause I do not use it. It misses some features which I need. Or at least when I last tried it, it was missing them. So I only work with NetBeans for PHP (and sometimes C++ and Java).
