RE: [PHP] Dreamweaver 4 ignores PHP - again

WYSIWYG have their place. As a coder and a designer, it is always best for me to design in Dreamweaver while im working with laying out graphics on a newly developed page.. but when i have the look and feel down i never open that page up in there again... i just use text editor. -----Original Message----- From: Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams [mailto:ignacio@openservices.net] Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 4:35 PM To: Sue Bailey Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Dreamweaver 4 ignores PHP - again On Wed, 15 Nov 2000, Sue Bailey wrote: > And MASSIVE THANKS to Beth - you ever tell your boss you know HTML and > have him assume you can therefore set up his e-commerce company (as in > site _and_ everything else -- believe me, then you will feel like a > monkey!) It's not people like you that we have a problem with. We understand your frustration. Most of us have been there. It's the people who know how to use one of these canned WYSIWYG HTML editors and then believe that they are capable of enterprise-level applications. It's those people that these packages are oriented towards, because most talented people either don't need these packages or use them only for truly disgusting tasks. Lemme tell all of you a little secret: I use FrontPage 2000. I don't use it because I don't know HTML, or because I'm too lazy to code it manually. I use it for two reasons exclusively: 1) As a connection between my web server and my text editor (EditPlus). I have yet to see a decent SSH client for Win32, and I'm not certain that I will for a time. However, we have the FrontPage Server Extensions working perfectly on our web servers. 2) I hate doing frames manually. In fact, I refuse to. I hate frames, so I just have FrontPage do the frames, and I fill in the content myself. I still find it better to go into text mode for HTML editing, and of course it's completely useless for PHP, but it's just a matter of looking for the proper uses, something HTML "experts" don't bother with. -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ignacio@openservices.net> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
