True, Paul. FP makes a mess of the code because it doesn't link the CSS
(cascading style sheet), but rather dumps all that crap in the code.
When I post my articles to the TechTrax management software, they
literally state in the manual...do not use FP or the software won't
work. That's because they have their own style sheet you select through
an interface. Dreamweaver links the CSS so the code is extremely clean
without hundreds of lines of MSO style garbage in the HTML.

Between the styles and extensions, it's just not worth my time to mess
with it.

Hi Linda,

Thanks for that.  I have been  looking into suitable  html editors
lately and while I used Frontpage some in the past I am told it isn't
the best as it can create  somewhat dirty code and doesn't always do a
good job.  Also I  found out that some ISPs won't  use it as it kind  of
ties them into Microsoft too much.  I know how to code html a little so
am on the look out for a good editor.  I have heard of dream weaver mx
which is supposed to be an accessible version of  that program but  have
a blind friend using it and he isn't altogether happy with it and he is
a programmer himself.

Paul.
