New & looking for some info :).

Right. I want to try and find out about the whole "website coding" idea and see if I can actually do it (I'm pretty sure I could).

I'm just not sure exactly what "coding" means. Say for example I have a layout that is just a single .PNG file, does coding it simply mean slicing each little section and then placing them all in the correct places?

And if I were to go about doing this, would I be able to use a programme which I already have called Namo Web Editor? In my mind, I would go about it by creating a table with a different cell for each individual piece of the jigsaw, if you like.

So, have I got the right idea, am I close, or am I just barking up a completely different rainforrest ?


Cheers .

LOSE THAT THOUGHT RIGHT NOW.

Yes, you sice the image into lots of different images BUT never code them using tables Do a google search for "XHTML/CSS Coding" or something. That should explain the best way to code a layout

What he said, don't use tables. Use DIV's that are styled using CSS. Much easier once you get the hang of it, and much better too.

Wow OK thanks .

Then learn PHP :]

I would not reccomend using Namo Web Editor, it has a cheezy name.. Web Editor.

Try to get something like Adobe/Macromedia Dreamweaver.

Hehe. I only have it because a friend of my mum's who is a Web Developer, gave me it . It seems to be quite good anyway.

Edit: Bah, on Google, everyone is just offering the service. I found one little turorial that was basically showing me how to make red text .

If I just continue with the chart method, what's the worst that can happen?

I didn't, I was told to search "XHTML/CSS Coding".
