To answer two specific questions first: no, you don't need a database to archive articles, but creating a Content Management System (CMS) is for advanced web developers. And even they very often have problems with it. So you should forget about that, for the time being. Unless you would want to...

I find plain CSS easy enough to not use any of the mentioned options. Especially with an editor like WeBuilder (not to be confused with Web Builder), with a number of CSS tools built in, writing CSS really is a peace of cake. And I think it is important to get a thorough working knowledge of the...

OK, thanks.

OK, we're getting closer to the point where I think I understand. But just to make sure: does this mean that Python 2 and 3 can both be installed on a server and that the web dev choses which version to use by means of the code your provided? I'm getting that too, in as far as I got the first...

And being helpful is not a task of a super moderator? What kind of forum has this become then? In post #15, Chris more ore less narrowed his advice on alternatives down to Perl and Python, but stated that "on many shared hosting environments Perl is either not installed or limited to basic...

You won the contest "Least helpful answers." With an extra bonus because you are a super moderator.

According to StackOverflow, "Two similar but incompatible versions of Python are in widespread use (2 and 3)." I don't wanna defend the inconsistencies and what else have you that makes PHP a mediocre language at best, but it seems to me then that there is no real alternative? Or would...

After reading the already linked article, I would agree it is a crap language. But I still haven't seen any decent advice on better alternatives from you guys. Chris is just saying, in this typical unfriendly if not rude manner, that I should figure it out myself, after summing up all possible...

If the past developments are a predicament of future developments, and they usually are, then we are heading towards browsers being much more capable of with much less coding needed. Especially Javascript libraries will become as good as fully obsolete, in some 10 years time at the most, I would...

It's not an easy language, I agree with that. But is there a better alternative for server-side scripting? One that also is installed on (practically) all servers and that is free? ASP?

I first read about it some three months ago. But upon visiting the site I got the impression that it is an image editor only, and one that heavily relies on HTML5 and CSS3. Of which especially the latter is poorly supported by IE9-. And apart from tables, I do my coding 'in the rough' anyway...

If you're also delivering a CMS, you could just put matters online and let them do the texts themselves.

LOL! But then again: if you look at how (semi-)public buses are dressed up in India - all bling-bling - it is totally in line with their culture. And I'm not very proficient at image manipulation, but I find the sparkling dogs eyes neatly done, too! :-)

As does everyone, because it is just a warning that the validator is still somewhat in its experimental phase regarding HTML5.

True. But even copied wheels often come out oval-shaped, without decent knowledge of HTML and CSS, if you know what I mean... ;)

No need to buy a book, everything is online for free: W3 Schools. Although, you should read the Bible, Romans 5:4. Something about patience and perseverance... ;).

Web pages consist of HTML and CSS code (and some javascript), you will have figured that out by now. But Coda is just a text editor with which you can write that code. A rich text editor, but just a text editor. That means that you have to know how to write the code, contrary to so-called What...

Even with such a simple website, the HTML code produced no less than 17 errors. Check for yourself on http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input. I would suggest to either hire a professional, or educate yourself via a beginner's course at for example http://w3school.com. My signature page...

etangins, Be honest. Your question just concerns an ordinary homework assignment, doesn't it?

Which website? You only gave the URL of the site that is your example, not of your own site.
