Ok i know it's probably a really stupid question but is there an easier way to design a website (without using frontpage) than writing it all in HTML code.
Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated,

All websites are made in html.
You have programs who do it for you however, like frontpage and dreamweaver.
you can use a CMS, like mambo, webinsta cms, go to the List of content management systems
and there are maaaaaaaaaany web editors, just like namo
If you want to get really lazy, and have it show on your page, feel free to use a wysiwyg editor like dreamweaver.

Ok... That would mean we're going to have to do this all the time:

And I don't think that there is a way to create web sites without using a WYSIWYG editor or HTML. At least not that I know of...

He said a WYSIWYG editor OR HTML
sorry, forget what I said
I don't know why you want to use editors such as Frontpage or Dreamweaver or try to avoid the HTML anyway, but you should really learn the HTML. I made a website about it but it's incomplete and in french, so i don't think it interests you anyhow. But you should find a way to learn (friends, websites, classes, programs anything!) because you'll need it in all type of programming. Truely, it is the basic foundation of everything.

The most effective way to create a webpage that looks exactly like you want it to, and does exactly what you want it to, without learning anything or using a WYSIWYG editor is to...
pay someone.
Only thing you have to remember is to close every tag you type always start off with
"<html>"
"<head>"
then
</head>
"<body>"
and don't forget...
TO CLOOOSE!
"</body>"
"<html>"
take out the quotation marks and I have created a web page, tadaa!

You forgot the doctype and <title> tag. They are both needed according to any version of the xhtml specification.
You could always try downloading a template from somewhere like http://www.oswd.org & then messing around with the content.
Well, you can use programs such as dreamweaver and frontpage. Some hosts (Geocities, Freewebs, etc.) don't require that you use HTML. But, I recommend using HTML because you can do a lot of neat things with it.
Well you can use Word Processor which obviously sucks.
There's no point, if you want an easier way just dont do it, HTML is the only way
If you are just creating a site just becuase, lean the few basic rules and get a WYSIWYG to help you out with the rest. The best, dreamweaver. However, if you are srious in web development. then you MUST learn HTML and CSS. You cannot get around that so get crack'n!
You can always take the easy way out by using a program or a site such as freewebs but your site won't really ever get much respect (especially if you use their templates). I suggest learning html and css. It's really not that hard especially with all the sites out there to help like www.htmlgoodies.com. If you run into a problem you can just come back to these forums and ask someone. It'll help in the longterm if you learn html because as your stie becomes bigger aned maybe more complex you'll need to know it.
hum, i think it's better if you use FrontPage or Dreamweaver (i like it, i think it's not very difficult to learn and you can create a dynamic page easily : jsp...), it will take you 5 minutes to have a simple html page with an editor and you can change the policy easily
Aitch Tee Emm Elle may not be easy to learn at first, but it will help you in the long run in terms of design flexibility, customisation etc.
Most good designs you see on the internet were probably coded by hand.
The nice thing about html is the heavy documentation on the internet. If you want to learn, you dont have to go very far. I recently implemented an Iframe in one of my html pages, and I had NO previous knowledge of how to do that before I looked it up.
try dreamweaver this is the best option to design a webpages.
Well, many HTML editors have a code completion feature(like quanta), so you only have to write the starting tag and not the ending one. This could help if you're looking for an easier way to write html.
Really, just use dreamweaver and modify the code to your liking.

Heh, not true. It'll only show on your page if you can't operate a WYSIWYG editor properly.
Of course if you don't use Windows or don't feel like shelling out near $200 for a program that you will have limited use for, then you can use NVU which is cross platform and free.
just learn HTML its really simple....after a month you'll have it down. it just takes paicents.
just use notepad and code it...save it as a .htm file... you dont need to spend any money....easier just to learn it.
hey
if u want to create websites in a hurry. There are lots of ways
Hire a web designer
Use templates from websites(some even provide them for free).
google page creater or geocities.com
You can even use myspace for ur personalized webpage.

you can use a WYSIWYG like NVU,
or you can just use MSWord, and in the SvaeAs dialog select 'Web Page'
