I'm thinking, at least a bit hoping if not shocked, that 4 billion is an exagerated number?

Finally I found the comments again! Since I have a rather strict JavaScript policy (Firefox NoScript plugin) I just didn't see anything below the posts but the footer.

I would suggest using the <noscript> HTML tag like:
<noscript>Please turn JavaScript on to see the comments</noscript>

So, if you have JavaScript enabled you will see the comments, otherwise that message.

For some reason many websites, even supposedly professional ones of big companies, don't make use of this tag and just expect everyone to have JavaScript enabled by default.

I may not have all the fancy color coded goodies etc., but it is good.

Well... I used Dreamweaver... oosp? But yeah... I was learning all that but yeah... I just needed to make something quick. Pretty horrible website but it got the job done. At least I hope so. :-\ It would be awesome if I could learn to write something out by hand. One day. Maybe when I graduate and come back from Japan. The good news is that I got it done in a day and I am now done with all things IB untill the exams in May. By the way, I'm sorry but I borrowed the style of the navigation bar up there or whatever you call it. If one of you is ever bored and feels like learning about Mbuti African music and Scottish Gaelic work songs I may post the link one day. :D

Completely forgot about TextEdit. That's a good one also.

I just tried Smultron - It's nice since it's free, but I don't like the colors of everything very much. Nice though.

Re: Help Me Help You (Plus Extended Nara Mascot Contest Deadline!)

koichi — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:00:36 -0000

Smultron, hm? I'll have to check it out. Looks pretty.

I'll take a look at BBedit and also the ones Viet suggested. Yea, DW is pretty good, but sometimes when have a lot of code, I lose track of things. I always find myself returning back to TextEdit to fix a bug/typo, etc. I still have an older version of DW, so I wouldn't know anything about the new stuff they fixed/added.

In all seriousness, if you want to code by hand and don't want to deal with all the Terminal and Command Line stuff, then I recommend the following software:

Windows
Notepad++ (free)

OS X
BBEdit (as recommended by Koichi, but costs $$)
Smultron (free)

I suggest learning the syntax before jumping into a WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver. That's what I told my young padawan Koichi and he seem to turn out alright :P

Newb. It's all about VIM!

I keed I keed.

koichi — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 16:49:36 -0000

I just use BBedit, which is a Mac glorified version of notepad for Windows. Basically, I just write everything out by hand. I hear dreamweaver has gotten better, but those things always mess up the code and move things around to places you don't want them in.

クリス — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 16:44:09 -0000

Hmm, I'm in the same boat. What program do you use Koichi? Right now I'm running Dreamweaver. I was messing around with iWeb [thinking I could be lazy], but I'd rather enter many lines of code, than to be frustrated with a program that lacks the tools I need, haha.
