I am starting to go more into web designing lately, and I know basic html. With Dreamweaver I am able to slice and code my own sites, but is that all I need for it to be deemed "ready for sale"? Are there specific codings that need to be placed inside the code for security or does the hosting service provide protection? Sorry if this seems like a newbie question, I'm new to the business of coding and wish to expand my skills .
Umm i would say ability to hand code design to HTML using any plain text editor like Notepad++ or Crimson Editor [just dont use DreamWeaver or any IDE] will be a better skill to acquire, sooner the better. Good luck in learning more
It seems you are concerned about security. In addition to html, try to learn a scripting language like php which can provide more security to your code/web site. When you write in php/html, you can encrypt some of the key components to protect your files.
Thx for the info guys, it really helps =) I'll look into php and start using it. Also starting to love crimson editor, it has numerous useful perks
