you missed off Adobe Golive. more common than FP in a professional environment. Golive and Dreamweaver are the only reasonable ones. Do all of mine in noted of course
Started on notepad, went to PFE, lately using Ultraedit32.
I hates WYSIWYGs to pieces since they never do what I want and I always end up fixing the mess they make when I try to use them. On top of that some are optimized for MS, some for IE. None of them work perfectly for all.

ahhh, the real way... you're obviously talking about hand-rolling the dough, chopping your own garden-fresh vegetables, and making your sauce from scratch. hmm, maybe that's the real way to make a pizza.
but seriously, there is no "real way" to make web pages. writing it by hand is just as "real" as using a wysiwyg editor, is it not? it all depends on what you're trained to use. but saying that using a wysiwyg editor isn't the "real" way is just ignorant.

i find it pretty funny that most of the people's pages who said they write their own html don't even validate. so i guess that just because you do it by hand, it doesn't mean you're any good at it.
Tell ya what Matt, let me tell you how I see it. When w3.org's own webpage validates without warnings then I will worry or care about it. Who are they to tell me what is or is not valid when they cannot get it right themselves?
I have on word for it, and it starts with bull...............
All I care about is whether it looks alright in Nescape and I.E. Have you ever noticed that what they call "valid" does not render the same in both browsers? You may say that one of the browsers is broke. I call that a cop out and say your HTML is broke if you can't code for both of them and make it look the same in each.
Every bit of HTML code that I have ever done looked exactly the same in Netscape as it did in I.E., but yet it's not valid HTML? Bull..............
