Re: Which browsers do you support for -public- web sites?

2004-12-09 Thread Irvin Gomez
We only support version 5+ browsers. BTW, a properly structured site will require minimal tweaking to make it work consistently across browsers and platforms. Solid knowledge of CSS is required, though. I'm guessing that some good comments on my question are buried somewhere in that 500

don't go comparing apples to oranges and assume the results have any validity. cheers, barneyb At least, the numbers serve as a guide. Better that than anecdotal (and probably completely false) data like the one you provide. On Mon, 06 Dec 2004 16:54:35 -0400, Irvin Gomez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote

They don't tie you to Dreamweaver - you're free to use whatever editor you like if you're willing to forego the benefits of templates in the future. Your statement can be re-worded like this: The moment you sever your ties to Dreamweaver, the benefits of templates are not available to you

Ok, if they're not so good, what do you suggest for straight HTML sites that can't use a scripting technology? The simplest (and pretty obvious!) answer is: you just code yor page just line any of the millions of developers who don't use Dreamweaver. On a more practical note, though:

I must be missing something here, Robert. Isn't the situation you describe the text-book scenario for includes? That said, let me show you how you can run into a nightmare situation by using library items: You work with library items, make all necessary changes, update all related pages
