Here is a real easy WYSIWYG web authoring tool much like dreamweaver.
Are you starting from scratch or editing a site?

A fellow helped me put my web site together and now he has disappeared. I need to be able to edit an existing web site (Don't )Check out www.romotc.com and all its link (This was a typo). Some parts I don't even know how to get to the editor for that page.

Hey that is funny!!!!! I made a type and put in romotc" instead of romtoc. Try this link

www.romtoc.com This is the actual link to my web site. Oh Well. Got it now. K-mann

Kmann. I followed your link and got a chinese character'd webpage.

I personally use microsoft word as a web page editor and I build up the page locally, check it out, before I FTP the source up to the server.

It looks as if you have been hi-jacked, I can't even change te font when I copy the chinese sorurce into my web editor.

Everett is an expert in this, I think you should ask him for help.

I personally would build a new web page from scratch, because I would not trust what is there now, noit to ave evil stuff inside it.

Maybe this should be a PM but I have written it now.

Beware of opening Kmann's link.

I've been doing small web development stuff for a long time. I've done HTML by hand, written some JavaScript, PHP, Perl and Python (my favorite). I've played around with style sheets a bit, but am by no means an expert. I put together Veewiki.com (installed MoinMoin wiki, a Python program, configured it, set up the style sheets, etc. etc.) I sometimes help out with www.bltnvw.com as well - written some HTML and a few PHP scripts.

PM me and we can chat about what you need.

I'd be happy to help too. I've been a web developer for 10-11 years now, everything from hosting to building pages to database apps.

Just let me know if I can be of service.

Looks like your helper used Trellix Site Builder to generate this site.
<META name="generator" content="Trellix Site Builder">
You probably access it via logging into your hosting company startlogic.com
They probably started by using a template via Trellix Site Builder
I would not change development tools unless you making minor changes.
It's probably made for non-programmers

Your photo gallery is PHP script everyone and there dog uses you usually activate install it via your hosting company or upload it and just start the installation script then answer a few questions. There is an admin account to administer it.
http://gallery.menalto.com/

Same with your forum phpBB
http://www.phpbb.com/
Same thing that they use here @ the Samba

I use both these public free PHP scripts you have to do updates periodically because people figure out to hack them and the authors have to close the holes

All this stuff was set up while logged into your hosting site.
To get help you will have to let someone in so they can poke around to see whats up.

Scrap the stuff @ your parts lnk and use a php ecommerce script. Your hosting company certainly has a way to install one. If not this is agood one. http://www.oscommerce.com/

What are your goals?
What do you want to do?

Looks like "MercurialThing" is your best bet--sounds like he is a webmaster. Ive been sys admin / programmer for 25. I can do any of the web development stuff but don't specialize in it.

There is no evil stuff in your source :lol:

Huummmm...........well I have a very difficult time believing K-mann needs help with anything.
It was my impression he is Mr. Know It All.
Just ask him.

What a silly post. You seem like a grade school kid trying to bully some other kid. How have I wronged you. You seem so angry and vengeful. Ahead of time, I apologize for my wrong doings and shortcomings.

I get by with lots of help from all my good friends.

Another helpful and friendly reply by ztnoo. :roll:

K-mann, just ignore this petty and unnecessary nonsense. Obviously, the rest of us are willing to assist you however we can.

I enjoyed seeing the pictures, especially the door on Herr Kubelmann. That was a great Colorado/Nebraska/New Mexico Thing event.
