HTML EDITORS

You can use NOTEPAD to write HTML code, but why? HTML editors are designed to make writing WEB pages easier.

WYSIWYG editors, such as MS Front Page and Hot Metal Pro, make initial page development super easy for beginners. So why don't experienced WEB developers like them?

#1 Reason: their poorly constructed code makes pages difficult, if not impossible, to load (especially after a lot of editing).

If you are serious about WEB development, we reccommend you start with a good HTML editor.
