I have been using Dreamweaver trial and now that it is over and i know HTML pretty well i decided to use notepad. The only problem is after I edit my website on notepad how do I put it online so everyone can see the update. Thanks.

Do you mean that you were using the publish feature in Dreamweaver and updating the site via FTP?

If that's the case, then you need to get another FTP client so you can upload/download all of the files that you had. A good one that I use is FileZilla

Use a FTP client

FileZilla, WS_FTP, CoffeeCup, Cute FTP, and dozens more

I use FireFTP

Plugin on firefox opens it in a new tab works quite well also and is free

For HTML editing, you cal also try Notepad++. It is free and much better - multiple tabs, Syntax highlighting etc.

Notepad 2 works also, same thing...it's prob the same exact as Notepad++ haha

I second FireFTP. I use it all the time.
It's much more convenient than opening a separate app.

I use cutehtml, works really well

You know I like FlashFXP. You can edit the files right on the server. You have to buy it though.

If you really like dreamwaver but don't want to spend the money then I highly recomend NVU which is a free html editor much like dreamwaver. Check it out...

While we are on the subject whats the program I see quite a bit sometimes, where the people program and the backround is black and the text is diff colors?...It looks just like a notepad but it looks cool would make programming a lot more fun with colors XD!

Here you go l3lueMage

Goto...

Settings > Style Configurator

Ya just found it, that is so awesome haha. Now all my programs will look all colorful and stuff o.o!

Take Care

I second FileZilla. It's the best!

I third FireFTP it's just so simple. Much more so than some others - I just don't need lots of settings and FireFTP took seconds to set up. If you need lots of setting, others may be better.
