I will start this topic off with a pirate just because I think he is cool.  Anyways, HTML is the best thing in the world!! :S I say this because I am making a MGS(Metal Gear Solid) site from it.  I mean notepad all the coding the whole shabang.  Yeah I am a mess. Anyways, just wondering if anyone else enjoys the HTML.  I know I do...... at times. I would use a program to make my site but, I worked with DreamWeaver at school and let me just say this; It doesn't weave no dreams only NIGHTMARES. So I am better with Notepad and memory. Sooo much fun!  Sometimes it gets messy you just have to have a way to do it.  So if you bulid websites what are your techniques or what not. I am curious to see if anyone is as crazy as me.
PHP > HTML, so much more customization.
PHP can't be greater than HTML because they have two totally different purposes.

Both scripts interlink and I just feel with everything PHP can do it kinda defeats HTML, but that's only my opinion of course.

PHP needs HTML to function.

Please do the internet a favor and design with CSS and DIVs. Tables are a pest to the web, and make loading pages slower.
(A table can not appear on your screen until all of the table has been downloaded, DIVs can render and show one at a time, so you can see content before the rest is done downloading.)
Hehehehehe...*huggles with the internet* It is okay because I refuse to use tables for the main design. I only use tables for placing images and such. I use CSS and DIV.

I have downloaded and tried Notepad++ and it is really amazing! It will help me a lot with my HTML/CSS coding. Thanks a lot for suggesting it 
I still haven't downloaded it but, it does look promising. I think I will after I get everything done that way nothing happens to my files. (Yeah I am parinod I almost cried when the powersupply on my computer died. I thought I lost all my work I did on my site. lol :P)

I recommend it to you, it makes the process of coding easier and funnier (It ads colors to things :angel: )
I am also paranoid with my files, but I always keep a backup of them somewhere else, where I can access it if something happens to the others 
I would like to learn PHP, but I want to practice more CSS first until I handle it perfectly B) But I think that after CSS goes XHTML :S

I tend to do most of my coding in notepad, I find there to be less errors when I validate it afterwards as apposed to when I use frontpage or dreamweaver.

(A table can not appear on your screen until all of the table has been downloaded, DIVs can render and show one at a time, so you can see content before the rest is done downloading.) Plain text design is okay, but Notepad++ is much better. It gives you syntax highlighting, which is really very nice once you start to dwell inside of PHP and the such. I assume you will want to learn PHP later, it would be a wonderful idea... Also, editors such as Dreamweaver are pretty pointless. Free editors give you all the features you need, you only really need Dreamweaver if you want to develop in Cold Fusion. A text-based editor with highlighting (ex: Notepad++) is generally the better option. Quanta Plus should have a Windows port within a year or two, that will DEFINITELY be worth getting. It has features I have yet to see in other web editors, and has wonderful project management.
dream weaver isn't pointless, though it can turn you into a lazy coder, since it adds all the doctype information and such for you.
The main seller Dreamweaver uses is its WYSIWYG interface. While the coding part may be nice (and generic), the WYSIWYG can almost NEVER generate clean, valid, and organized code.
Many other editors will add in DOC TYPE for you, I think Notepad++ even has that feature... I think...
