Hi all:
So, I decided to return to an old friend of mine called Dreamweaver (DW) to build a website of sorts.
I have not worked in the HTML environment for a long time now, so I was more curious as to how fast I could put together a linking website with some simple text and pictures. I didn’t want to do anything far out, such as toolbars and/or tabs, just nice and simple. I kept the premise easy, recipes, and grabbed the needed pictures from the internet.
I remembered to create an index.html as the home page and built the linking pages from there. It does not appear that DW has changed much since I last used it (2006?). Though I was pleasantly surprised that I could copy and paste Wordart from MS word into the .html files and a source image was automatically generated in the corresponding folder. I was also impressed with the number of templates they have available.
I found the use of tables to be beneficial for keeping items organized and having a template to work from.
When it comes to the Moodle website, I will surely include a more organized/appealing layout.
In total, it took me roughly an hour and half to just to build that simple four page site.
Cheers,
Ryan.
