Second thread

I'm going to try Trellian as it's a wysiwyg free webpage builder. I found it searching google and have heard of it before but couldn't remember the name. A friend in Canada used it to build websites for herself and another friend of mine.

Try Nvu. Open source freeware and wysiwyg. It makes pretty clean html code that is cross-browser friendly.

Thanks Dan. I downloaded Nvu, haven't installed yet. I tried Trellian and on install it went to custom install with three objects to check or uncheck, one being Toolbar, I wasn't sure if that was spyware or not :eek: so I exited the install. Will try Nvu this weekend when I'm off work and on my own time.

I've been working on a school newspaper project using ASP 1.0. It's perfect for a newspaper website since it's much more dynamic than most of the 'storefront' type sites I've done so far. I'm still coding by hand but it makes changing things much faster.

I found my Dreamweaver and will install it this week. I looked at and installed NVU which I will also be checking out this week while I'm on vacation.

Now I just have to find a host and get a domain name. Our internet service doesn't offer any webpage space, so I have to do this on my own. I did find my domain name is still available at $8.99 per month, now I just have to get the funds to pay for it and find a webhosting service.

Did you mean $8.99 a year? That would be a reasonable price for a domain name. Basic web hosting can be found for about $5 a month. Go with a well known provider such as GoDaddy or 1and1. You might find a package deal for the domain name and hosting and save some money.

Yes, Dan, it was a year. But webhosting was $8.95 a month. I used godaddy to check for both domain name availability, and webhosting prices. I've never heard of 1and1, do you have a url for that one?

I've had a hosting package there for a few years. I just renewed one of the basic hosting sites at a cost of less than $30 for six months. That's less than $5 a month.

Watch the bandwidth. Some will cut you off when you reach it, while others will just send you a bill for it at a it will be sticker SHOCK.

Thanks Dan for the link and additional info. And thanks Train for the heads up. Will watch out for the limited bandwidth.

I'm on 1and1 too. I'm pretty happy with them. Huge huge bandwidth in my package, 120GB storage, 1.2TB of transfer per quarter. They claim 99.99% uptime. My logs claim 99.93% or so. The telephone support isn't very good, but they add a lot of features to even their basic packages. Far and away the cheapest host I've found with FTP/frontpage access.

I see you are going to tery NVU Photolady. Hope you'll like it. I am a novice really and using NVU. I have made my web site with this software. If you decide to use NVU and have any views and findings with this software please publish it here.
Good luck.
PS. You might like to read below thread...it is about a little problem I was having with NVU.
