How about "not-so-dear" Selena then? :pOriginally posted by Selena:Naah, I'm not doing it for commercial purposes, its rather for my own use, to learn how to use the s/w that is currently in demand, hot, blah blah blah.
And yes, I do know the "er hmmmmmm" type
But currently, for the people trying to find that type of s/w, all I have to say is, good luck for I've noticed that there are getting lesser and lesser of these types of .. erm .. enterpreneurs.
2 thousand dollars you say? Gasp ... I can get a new system plus a big monitor with that kinda money - sigh~~~
Sigh .. I really wanna learn flash and dreamweaver, but if tell me to d/l from the website for the 30 day evaluation, it wont be feasible cos after 30 days .. do what eh? And get the ermm type also very hard ... and the original type is soooooooooooooooo cheap *smirk* Sigh .. the hair pulling ritual begins ...
See you guys later, I'm going to bang my head across the wall
By the way 'dear selena'? hmmm ...
Computer Dome at Peninsula Plaza is still open though a little pricy... downloading the 30 day trial and then "cracking" it with online cracking softwares should solve the problem......
Unless of course you pay me for the er hmm software plus lessons... :p :p juz kidding -
Woah! I've been gone for like ages!
First to quote R-Mann:
'Usually, wat i do iz use a program to image capture of my screen.'
Mind if i ask u what the program is? And of coz i do save my .ist files but i started with the intention of using imagestyler to do my whole website...but still i am having trouble and i totally have no idea why.
Another qn that i wanna ask is that erm is it better for one to 'get-to-know' how to use Frontpage first before proceeding on to use Dreamweaver? Coz i still dont find the program easy to use...but well perhaps i am getting old hehe...anyway lame excuse..so what do u guys and gals have to say?

Hmmm..
For screen capturing software, try using Snag It! It's not too bad a software... real easy to use and friendly....
It's always good to not just start with Frontpage, but to have a solid foundation in what HTML is all about, and how to best manipulate and adjust the layout. Ie. using tables for the layout etc...
Of course, experience and experimenting is a vital part of the learning process.
Another recommendation would be to read up about things like.. how websites should be done.. the real theoretical stuff and fundamentals on site architecture.. Once you've built a solid foundation, any software shouldn't be too hard to use.. just a matter to experimenting and getting used to it.
If possible... do read and understand how HTML actually works.
Cheerio! -
If you understand raw HTML,then you will be able to more fully untilise programs like Dreamweaver,Frontpage etc etc,heheeh

Engima:
Tried PHP? I think it is alot more cooler than ASP....and it is open source....it's development is so much faster....PHP4 is out....and it is running at 8 times the speed of PHP3....this rocks!
As for flash the problem with it is the long loading time if you dun have a highbandwidth...and it is intensive work...
For HTML....I tell you and you dun beleive it....I still uses the notepad....I like it's flexibility....I am not bound by the support or affiliations of like frontpage to IE(since they are both microsoft)....or the bus in pagemill.....or the complex stages of Adobe Golive...so far if you are talking about HTML editors....the only decent one around would be Dreamweaver......but I still like my notepad....I get what I want no hassle no fuss.....
got no website to show you....as my previous works are all classified as I do work for the government sector.....but I think you know what I meant. -
Eh?
Whats PHP? -
Selena:
PHP is a language that has outgrown its name. It was originally conceived as a set of macros to help coders maintain persoanl home pages, and thus it's former name from it's purpose, "Personal Home Pages" initially. Since then, PHP's capabilityhave been extended, taking beyond a set of utilities to a full featured programming language, capable of managing huge datbase-driven online enviroments.
As PHP's capabilities have grown, so too has it's popularity. PHP is presently running at more than 1.4million hosts online. It is also the most popular Apache server module available, beating even ModPerl.
PHP is now officially know as PHP:Hypertext Preprocessor It is a server-side scripting language usually written in an HTML context. Unlike an ordinary HTML page, a PHP script is not sent directly to a client by the server; instead, it is parsed by rhe PHP binary or module on the host server itslef, so no more downloading of plugins. HTML elemetns in the script are left alone, but PHP code is interpreted and executed. PHP cpde on a script can query databases, create images, read and write files, talk to remote servers - the possibilities are endless. The output from PHP cpde is combined with HTML in the script and the result sent to the user. Often, PHP would be coupled with an SQL program to harness it's pwoer with DBMs. The MySQL program is one of the most popular, and with Apache server, MySQL DBM and PHP, the 3 makes a powerful combination.
Hope my little piece of summary is useful for you. If you want to know more, you can go to www.php.net

The best way to go about creating webpages is to hammer the basic layout with Dreamweaver/Frontpage etc etc and edit the HTML using a text editor which gives you more control and eleminates a lot of excess tags and junks that the program created,hehehe

PHP is more powerful.. that I've got to admit, however, ASP isn't too bad either... and as with all Microsoft products... it's easy to master (as long as you're comfortable with VBScript)
Too lazy to learn another language which is so similar after having spent so much time on ASP...
They have to like come up so close to each other... #$(#*@&*(#
