I'd avoid using FrontPage if possible Dreamweaver is nicer

EDIT: I'd rather hand code than to rely on FrontPage but your work-in-progress is pretty good nonetheless

...and you have to bring it up...

Since: CCColtsicehockey = web dev noob == learning to drive
Therefore:
FrontPage = Civic AT
DreamWeaver = NSX-R + Comptech Supercharger. + JDM Short Gears

dude look at your pages...do they honestly look "clean, classic" to you ?
(hint: balck background = gamer personal sites, satan-worship sites)

and FrontPage = "Web Standards"
(your pages look different in IE vs Mozilla/FireFox)

Ok so If I do my page in dreamweaver will the pages look the same in both firefox and IE. Also will I have to start from scratch or can I modify my current design.

trash your current "design" IMO.
Must you use a WYSIWYG editor ? You know how to modify the generated HTML ?
I say stay with FP, dreamweaver is like $400, save that for your mod.

Just find a site/template you like and use that theme as a basis and just add your contents.
batabing-bataboom....it's a bit like what you did with the TSX...you like the base car but you took out some stuff and put in your ideas....

I wouldn't necessarily suggest to trash your current work, I know it must have taken lots of efforts. The basic format/layout could still work, maybe try changing colour combo, etc.

I am not a graphic designer or web designer... I am a software code writer by trade; graphics and stylish designs stuff are way beyond me. I am probably more in the same boat as you are than matelot is matelot, I assume you are a pro or at a very advanced level in this...

I just tossed out the DreamWeaver name as I realize it's kind of the web designer's tool of choice... way more so than FrontPage. Not necessarily suggesting to buy it... you could download a free trial to play with it (is free trail still available?)

Anyway, as a visual reference I have copy-n-paste a sample of my own hand-coded page. I opted for simplicity in this...


Sorry, the page is not for general public viewing so not giving the URL... there's no car stuff to look at there anyway

The links to the pictures dont work on the website when i click on the thumbnails.
I went to the page where you have thumbnails of your upgraded sound/navi system. When i click on a thumbnail it gives me an error message.
