btw, You cant close tags while others are still open within it.

Eg, <div><table></div></table>

Also, as :link, :hover and :active have the same css you can comma delim them
a:link, a:hover, a:active { }

Im just amazed no one else from SAXP has attempted a joke or a "WTF" post

use dreamweaver and really impress him with moving objects and cheesey flashing colours ;)

Dreamweaver is awesome, i got suspended from school thanks to that software. Well... I say thanks to the software..more down to me using it inappropriately.

I remember using HTML coding, in IT at school, but i've more or less forgotten it all now :(

use style tags so much easier for quick one off pages. If its just that 1 page you want to create rather than a site.
i.e style="color:#ffffff;" inbed that in the table like this <table style="color:#ffffff;" ></table>
<td style="color:#ffffff;" ></td>

table is only good for tables they say ;) i.e displaying data in systematic order. i.e shopping baskets. apart from that div's are the way forward and better for seo

Sorry... Since when did dreamweaver become "awesome"?
Unless your using the coding feature and then previewing code, instead of using design mode.. its ok.. but other than that, it adds in naff bits you dont need. Code is messy.

Yuck.

What's up your arse?
It was awesome when we used it in year 7 (I'm now 20) and it beat writing html code when you can just drag and drop pictures and files onto the page. Im only talking basic web pages, not complex stuff.

Dreamweaver is an all in one package. it's more visual to help out graphic designers to school kids. but it's a better well made program than any other out there in terms of cross-platform ability. i.e support is widely known.
Unless your a developer then dream is your first step. I hardly use it now, as I read code all the time i don't need or can't use the preview option because i have to work with javascript, asp and .net framework coding. css and html are a small part now. but are the fundamental basics and the best to start off with.
