Why are you so mean about not allowing us to use WYSIWYG editors like DreamWeaver and FrontPage in class?
WYSIYG editors can be excellent tools, if you know how to work with them. The *what you see is what you get* style editors often add extra, browser specific coding. You may or may not want to keep that coding in your page, but knowing what is and is not valid codes and which browser specific codes can adversely effect cross-compatibilty is essential for web designers. We want you to learn what makes the html codes tick in this class. If you choose to use an editor program outside of class, understanding the dynamics of coding can only help you in problem solving and creating standardized, valid codes.
