HTML - Wysiwyg Editor
I'm using WYSIWYG Editor by openwebware, and really, I think it's sort of dumb. I'm using it to replace the text editor but it's not working, well it works - but it doesn't submit data. I looked through the code and I saw it was only hiding the textarea id, and adding the WYSIWYG Editor where there is a hidden one, but as I stated above, it's not submitting data. Is there any fix for this?
I have no access to source files. Similar TutorialsI have never used anything like this before, but is there a way to have a simple html tag set in a page to allow my client to simply type in nothing but text into a text file or box, then upload it via the file manager, and then it is displayed on the site? I guess it is borderline a Blog, but I do not wish it to be. Ideally, my client can just save a txt file and name it "update1" "update 2" etc. and they just keep stacking on each other. Im not sure if I can post the website address here and I hope admin will just erase the site name and not this whole thread. It is www.theoutdoorguys.net and you will see how the home page has updates that are very simple textual updates, yet, I have to be around every Saturday to update them. Seems like if I can have my client type into something and it posts on its own it would be ideal! thank you for any help you can give me. Jason Hi Folks, Back in the day (circa 1995), I learned HTML by looking at the source code of some pages and then doing my own thing with the code I saw. This was OK just for simple pages, but that's was all I really wanted or needed. Then came family commitments, job changes etc., and I sort of left HTML behind. Now in my forties, I cycle a lot and want to do a webpage for my travels, with some photographs etc. I tried RapidWeaver, and it does produce some nice results. However, it's still someone else's template, and besides, any more than six pages on my site and it continuously crashes. Saving the document takes about twenty minutes each time, and so I postpone saving it until I've done say, two or three pages. Then it crashes, so I have to redo those pages... Not ideal. So I scouted around and found Flux 3.0. I have to say, it's an impressive bit of kit, but because I stopped using HTML a while back, there are loads of things there that I don't know: CSS and div to name but two. I think the only option for me is to learn (or "relearn") HTML, but all of the sites I've found from my google searches so far, are either for complete beginners, or else for people whose knowledge far exceeds mine. And a google search for 'Flux tutorial' isn't much help, either. Could someone please point me in the direction of an 'intermediate' tutorial, or else one that will help me to hone and update my skills to the point where I can hand code the entire site myself? Many thanks. I have a wysiwyg text editor on my site and I want users to be able to copy-n-paste clip art from their ms word docs into it and have it display on the web. Is there anyway to do that? Hello. =) I was wondering: is there an HTML editor that can create this layout (and other similar layouts) in WYSIWYG format, and by using DIVs?: I'm a complete beginner with HTML editors, but I'm intermediate with actual HTML code. For several years, I've been creating webpages by hand, WITHOUT using an HTML editor. That means I use my prior knowledge, type the code into NotePad, and then physically open/check/edit/refresh my pages as I go. Since I know a lot of code (and my typing speed is 65 words per minute), I always figured this method was faster (and less frustrating) than using an editor and going to File -> Edit -> Insert -> Table -> 4 Rows, 3 Columns. However, building pages by hand has a lot of negatives: I can't easily detect mistakes/typos; it gets very tiring; etc. So I really NEED to learn how to use HTML editors, and I want to start with something basic. When I say "basic", I want something that will allow me to create DIVs, iFrames, etc. -- in WYSIWYG format. I've used the following free HTML editors, and none of them let me make DIVs in WYSIWYG format : CoffeeCup HTML Editor Kompozer PageBreeze Microsoft FrontPage 2003 Amaya NotePad++ (as a side note, this program has so many options, I got confused/frustrated) I've been using tables to make my layouts for years, but I heard that's "incorrect" so I'm starting to use DIVs now. But, I'm still new to DIVs -- which means they really confuse me and I HATE THEM (? - why are there are SO MANY "float:" and "position:" rules?!! And unlike tables, DIVs don't automatically match the width of the text inside them! By default, DIVs stretch and fit the entire page width! AND, DIVs aren't any smaller than tables!!!). Anyway, since I'm new to DIVs, that means if I manually create them, chances are I'll get it wrong...so I have to keep checking/editing/refreshing the pages. Which is why I need a WYSIWYG DIV creator; it'd be great if I could draw a rectangle and the editor understands that, "Okay, this 'rectangle' is a DIV and she wants it in EXACTLY this spot". Most of the editors I listed above are free and/or so basic that I can't even add DIVs. All I can do is make a boring, one-color, one link class page. And I never saw "Insert: DIV" option anywhere, which means I'd have to type the <div> tags myself. And that's not saving me any time. So, that's my dilemma. I REALLY need to start using HTML editors, preferably one that's free, WYSIWYG, lets me "draw" DIVs, and allows me to switch between Visual Mode and HTML Mode (so I can see exactly how they made the DIVs). If anyone has suggestions or advice, please let me know! (By the way: you CAN mention programs that aren't free. Although I'm broke, I'll write them down until I can afford to buy them!) Thanks in advance! I'm using WYSIWYG, please look at my webpage he http://www.nwvisuals.com/ You'll notice that the text below the images gets all over the place if you (A) Have resolution that is not 1024x768 (B) Not in full-screen mode Which is really really bad for me. Should I fix it with basic HTML'ing? Is this the downfall of WYSIWYG editors? Has anyone else had any problems when using notepad to edit code created with an WYSIWYG editor such as Frontpage or Dreamweaver? In particular, making links, that are correctly coded, work? Something even odder, is that this problem only occurs on the index.html page. If I rename that page the links work just fine. I have asked this same question in other forums and no one seems to have a clue. Has anyone else encountered this or have any thoughts? Can someone recommend me a goo HTML editor? I can drag and drop control. Include syntax checking, ... Hey people, what is considered to be the best HTML editor, Currently I use dreamweaver but I would be happy to spend out a load more cash if there is a better one, I also want to know which editor would be best spending my time learning. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good but easy to use HTML Editor? I want to be able to have complete control over the HTML, something which my current Host Sitebuilder does not allow. Thanks Hello, newbie here. I have worked, hacked, html files, so I'm familiar with the basics and guts of the files. I know there is software that will allow you to create/build html files. I assume these are called editors or html front end...... whatever. So, 1) what is this software called 2) what do you recommend for basic web pages nothing fancy. So what I'm looking for is something that is easy to use, intuitive, and solid. Any ideas ? Thanks I have been using Notepad ++ for a while now. Just wondering, maybe their is a better editor? It needs to be able to work with CSS/JS/PHP. Someone recommended to me Bluefish Editor... I don't have time to be trying numerous software, what are other web developers using? I appreciate any input. Hi all, I can code html by hand but I am looking some tools or editor which can help me code html faster than hand typing. Any thoughts? I heard dreamweaver is a great tool for coding html. Please feel free to give me any advice. Thanks in advance. Opeth Hi all, I wanted to learn HTML before 1 year, but I gave up, it was too much too read But now I wanna start again, and I'm searching for the tool I used. But I can't find it, it was so easy, and I was able to use it, and believe me, there's not much I CAN use It was a simple editor tool, and I think it was from Mozilla. That's what it did: I wrote something in HTML, and when I pressed preview he showed me what will display when I add the code on a website. And I was able to save my codes as a file format, but I don't know which, I think something standard... And now I want that tool again, but I searched for 2 hours now and I can't find it... Does ANYONE know the name? I would be very pleased about a helpful answer... Or does anyone know a tool which does, what I described? A simple tool? ______________________________ CuddlyBunny AkA Nico Hey guys I am after an online html editor So lets say I have a simple html site I put the editor into an admin folder ( password protect it ) so when i go to the editor I can make changes to the html pages - add images etc. Does anything like this exist? preferably free ware on open source cheers Hi There again, I didn't think I would be posting again so soon, however I have decided to play around with building a site for my personal company which does not even exist yet. I just downloaded a free version of Page Breeze which I am sure most of you have heard of and was wonering if it is any good from a "professional" stand point. Being a "newbie" or "rookie' myself and have only played around a little bit on it, it seems very user freindly. Is there anything out there in a "free" version that is better or is there a fairly inexpensive HTML editor out there that is GREAT? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hi everyone, I downloaded notepad++ in order to work with at creating html code. In contradiction to my expectations there are no <html>, <head>, <title>,<body> tags showing up automatically at each new page. Closing tags do not show up each time i create a new tag and there are no properties/values lists for each tag. So, whats the good in notepd ++ ? Why is it considered better then ordinary ms notepad ? Thanks I'm trying to display some VB code in my webpage. I can keep the code structure using the pre and code tags. Is there any way I keep the color displayed in the code editor (vbsedit, textpad, ultraedit ... etc) ? Hi everyone, I downloaded notepad++ in order to work with at creating html code.

I want to open the image in a photoshop directly. Thanks for looking ! Hi all Until recently I have used plain text editors to code, but lately I have found that IDEs can be a welcome aid. I don't really need anything super fancy like a full-scale IDE, just syntax highlighting and something that keeps track of indentation so that when I move to a new line I don't need to tab out to the correct indentation. I have used notepad++ on Windows and I really like it, but most of my coding is done in a Linux environment and AFAIK there is no Linux version. Something similar to notepad++ would be awesome. I am looking into an editor called SciTE that is apparently the basis of notepad++ so hopefully that will be the answer. If such a thing exists then perhaps an editor that will help me keep track of the various attributes that each element can have (my experience with HTML/XHTML etc. is limited and I hate having to keep looking up the attributes at my disposable), it would be far easier to have access to some sort of HTML/XHTML/CSS API, or to be able to create one like you can in notepad++, it doesn't necessarily need to be part of the editor so any suggestions on sites that offer this sort of thing would also be much appreciated. |
