HTML by hand simply means coding HTML without the aid of HTML software
or as they're sometimes called, WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get)
web editors.
Dreamweaver and Frontpage are two popular WYSIWYG web editor/ website software
packages.
The good thing: they are versatile and powerful.
The bad thing: they are versatile and powerful! I
use these tools but I understand what the underlying code is doing. As
you make changes, these editors don't fully erase all the code they
create. These odd bits of left over code
can kill your web pages. If you don't know HTML, and afterall that is the reason you
bought one of these programs in the first place, then you don't know where to look
to fix the problem. I do.
Other
web development tools: javascript, vbscript, asp and SQL.
