Text & HTML Editors

A Simple Text Editor Named Notepad


What do you need to hand code (X)HTML? That is easy! For Windows PC users, Notepad will do nicely. You should already find Notepad installed. Look under Start>Program Files>Accessories>Notepad.
Notepad will work similarly to a word processor, but it doesn’t come with a lot of fancy formatting buttons and tools.
An option I find very helpful is the "word wrap" feature. Choose Format>Word Wrap. This automatically will wrap your html code to fit nicely in the window.
Format>Font will allow you to change the font used to code your page. I suggest keeping a monospace font (like Courier) to keep your characters in order. But feel free to enlarge or reduce the font size. It will have no effect on what is viewed on your own Web page, it only changes the look of your code in Notepad.
Newer versions of Notepad also include the Find and Replace feature, along with the ability to insert the Date and Time into your page. You will find both these options on the Edit menu.
Other Windows Text Editors
Notepad is a very basic text editor (about as basic as it gets,) but there are a few other choices that are a little more "user-friendly" than Notepad.
Other text/ascii editors:
(Please read the terms of use for any programs you download.)

For Macintosh users, here are a few basic text editors.

  • TextEdit should already be installed on your Mac OS X system. Although I find that there are better editors for Mac users.
  • Text Wrangler - it’s an excellent free simple text editor with html syntax highlighting for easy code viewing.
  • TacoHTML Edit - Same as TextWrangler, free and offers syntax highlighting. Also offers a preview feature to automatically open your web file in your default browser.
For Mac OS 9 users, you have a great basic text editor named SimpleText. It can be also accessed if you have OS X, but you also need Classic mode (not available in newer MacTel systems.) In Mac OS X, SimpleText can be found by choosing Hard drive>Applications(Mac OS 9)

Own a master piece


Have plans on decorating your home to make it look new? Some sort of experimenting to add some art to it. A painting that will hang on a barren wall could do the trick. But I’m not talking about just any ordinary painting. 1st-art-gallery.com brags that they offer handmade, oil on canvas reproductions of the most famous works of art. And they mean that because they have with them a bunch of experienced artists that work the same way like the famous Da Vinci, Monet, Vincent Van Gogh and Pissaro! They work in a creative haven where they produce works of art each day!

Actually, If you want a hand-made, reproduction of an amazing piece of art, or if you’re looking to turn a photograph into an original painting, 1st Art Gallery is the best, most affordable gallery around. Their painters are experienced, their turnaround time is quick and their prices are low. In fact, you’ll get a painting for what some of our competitors charge for a print.

Creating a great piece of art requires time, resources, equipment and most of all, an exceptional artist. At the 1st Art Gallery, you’ll find a team of some of the finest reproduction artists in the world. Every day, the team create works of art that measure up to the standards of the artists that originally painted them centuries ago. Using only the finest oil paints and canvases, their artists can create a 1st Art Gallery painting in 10-18 days. This investment in time and attention to detail make their paintings truly one of a kind.

They developed a creative panel to ensure that our high standards they met with every piece that leaves their gallery. Each painting is vetted by the panel of their most experienced artists through every step of the painting process. They work with the artists to make sure their reproductions match the color, expression and character of the original. And when the artist is creating a new piece, they help ensure that they’ve captured every detail of their customer’s request and of our customer’s photography.

This is a business that’s driven by customer recommendations. If you’re merely happy with the work you receive, you may tell a friend. If your expectations are exceeded, you’ll tell everyone about 1st Art Gallery. That’s why, from the materials they use to the artists they employ to the selection they offer, they’re driven to be the best.

Baby names



Most expecting couples find it exciting and challenging to come up with the best possible names that will suite perfectly well for their soon to be born sons and daughters. So since babies cannot choose names for their own, couples really are given that once in a lifetime privilege. Today, a lot of resources aide couples in coming up with popular and unique names with history and meaning.

Names are what make us unique and different from all the people around the world. That is why you do not only consider coming up with beautiful baby girls names or handsome baby boys names but you should also make it serve its purpose as it is their right. There are a lot of ways in naming a child. There are books, magazines, and websites that gather thousands of baby names you could


BabyZone.com Is Born

In 1995, the Internet was born. Although it was available long before to a small number of people, ten years ago it became readily available to millions. One year later, in 1996, BabyZone.com came into the world. As always, the story of the company's inception is a personal one.

Jeanine Cox, the Publisher and Co-Founder of BabyZone.com, was an art gallery owner living in South Florida. When she became pregnant, she looked for answers on the Internet to all the questions a first-time parent has.

There was virtually no useful, organized information that was quickly and easily accessible. So Jeanine did what all successful entrepreneurs do - she built it herself. She reasoned that if she needed comprehensive, easy to use parenting information, so did millions of expectant and new parents, too.

Jeanine's intuition was right. BabyZone.com was born and so was Jeanine's daughter, Nadia Grace.

BabyZone.com became popular almost immediately. The site grew so quickly that Jeanine needed to build a management team as soon as she could. And just like BabyZone's birth, it was a family affair. Jeanine's husband, Lew Bednarczuk, came into the business. Lew had the experience to take BabyZone.com to the next level of growth. A 15-year online industry executive, Lew left his position at CBS SportsLine.com and joined BabyZone.com as President and CEO.

Lew and Jeanine, like any successful business owners, took the next step. They needed to build a software development and content team quickly. And, once again, while the business grew, so did the Cox-Bednarczuk family. Baby Oliver Max came along. All at once, BabyZone.com began its intense focus on developing best of breed technology and tools to clearly differentiate itself in the marketplace.

And now, BabyZone.com will continue to lead the way in delivering innovative solutions for parents worldwide.
