Hey Steve.....

While you are at it.... you should respond to that post a couple of days ago
requesting volunteers for a TV FAN (for profit) site. Heck ... she even
promised to let you use her as a reference. I think her name was
Suzanne????? < vbg >

I would bet that a majority of the folks that frequent here do volunteer
work... and it is a good thing.... BUT .... it can take up a lot more of
your time than you want.

So I guess you could look at it this way..... you now have another spire on
your crown in heaven!

Best to you...

Tom-
I know what you are talking about. I volunteered to do a website for my
local volunteer fire department ( I volunteer for that also) and I will
admit that I knew absolutely nothing of web design, much less FP. I have
been doing it for 7 months now and I have learned alot through my mistakes
(aka Hover Buttons) and moreso through the use of this NG.

Thank You to all who have helped me in the past.

Mike Mueller, webmaster

I can sure remember the first time I "opened"
FrontPage 98 and started "trying" to make a web page.
I did a lot of looking at other sites using "View source"
Spent a month inserting hyperlinks and then editing
them before I figured out you could highlight some text and "then"
click the hyperlink Icon.
Also spent a month editing in html view to add target="_blank"
before I figured out it was in hyperlink properties.
And the list of these seems endless.

The biggest hurdle to me was learning the terminology so I knew
"what does what."
And believe me, I'm still learning. Every Day.
Lucked out quite a while back and found a little utility
at MSFT named Web Developer Accessories, that installed into
Internet Explorer. Places a listing named "Document tree"
on the IE right click context menu.
When clicked it opens a page listing all of the elements
and clicking on each listing displayed a list the element
attributes if they were used in the page.

Unfortunately it doesn't work in IE 6 with updates.

Have you tried IE Booster? It's Web Developer Accessories on steroid, IMHO.
Best of all, it's free. Download at http://www.paessler.com/iebooster
