HTML & Website Design Tools

Well, Are there any tools that are MUST when starting to learn coding in HTML, CSS and designing ?.

I'm trying to learn how to create web pages in html and css from scratch as well as design. Are there any handy tools that could be used to make life easier?.

Any response will be appreciated.

Phil, i think the better way to learn html, xhtml, css is http://www.w3schools.com/
Thanks

 

the only thing you really need is notepad or the like.

 

Firefox and the web developer extension should help you to learn quicker. It can help by outlining elements which lets you better visualize what you're doing. You can also edit CSS. There are a ton of things you can do right in the browser, I'll just say it's worth checking out.

 

I learned on Dreamweaver, try also to get one of those video tutorials, it is a good way to start.

 

Dreamweaver was much too expensive for me, so I use Evrsoft First Page. It's not a WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver, but is instead a syntax highlighter for hand written HTML. I also recommend Firefox and the web developer extension that Cesay mentioned. If you can make your page look right in Firefox, 9 times out of 10 it will also look right in IE.

 

A text editor (any will do, but do not use a word processor, not even Wordpad), a graphics program (such as Photoshop, Paintshop Pro or The GIMP), and browsers are all you need as far as software is concerned. Get your hands on IE 6, IE 7, Firefox, and Opera at the very least. If you can, grab a free copy of Virtual PC from Microsoft.com and install Linux onto it (it says you can't do it, but you can) so you can test on Konqueror. Galeon is of the same build as Firefox (Gecko) so you can safely ignore it unless you feel curious and just want to see. A local testing Web server such as XAMPP is recommended, but not necessary.

If you have a Mac, buy a copy of Parallels, Windows XP and then load up on browsers (as well as a copy of Linux). Make sure you have a lot of RAM on your computer though.

 

Thanks guys .

 

No problem.

 

I second what Lojadeluxo said, w3schools could be a great tool to someone trying to learn how to code, in any language. But other than that, I think to start with you can probably just get away with notepad.

 

I learned on Dreamweaver, try Dreamweaver

 

I learned on Dreamweaver too, try Dreamweaver

 

I tried and failed (with Dreamweaver) five years ago. It took a text editor to set me upon the right path.
