I can certainly agree with this. I was looking at the website of one
of the NHS trust departments earlier today. The page was generated in
Frontpage v2 and you should see the amount of unnecessary code in
there. The formatting of the text was all over the place too. As
someone who writes all my HTML by hand, just looking through that
source code made me cringe!
Maybe I'll design them a proper website when I start work for them in
September :)
WYSIWYG editors are useful for people who have little or no knowledge
of HTML though as it enables them to create a reasonable site with
little or no effort.
Chris, if MetalWeb3 is included in NC3 will it be integrated with
Voyager in some way? Either though AREXX or by adding an 'Edit
Page' option to the Voyager menus. A minor thing but Netscape lets
you do it so its worth looking into for Voyager.
