RE: [TCLUG:17130] Dreamweaver (was: <OT:anti-M$> *scary* stuff... )

[<Nick.T.Reinking@supervalu.com>]

Actually, I stick something like Perl or PHP in between
the Javascript step and the Applet step.  :)

BTW - you strike me as an anime fan.  Or am I way
off base?

If I had Photoshop (as good as on Windows), Dreamweaver,
PowerDVD, Premiere, and the MPEG encoding tools on
Linux, I wouldn't be so damned stubborn about my Windows
usage.  Are you hearing me, commercial software companies?

Hallo?

        Yup, prototyping and authoring are different.  My boss *now*
understands this (^_^)

        After taking a JavaScript class, I can appriciate the power of
JavaScript.  However, there are people (including the author of the textbook
we used) that say that JavaScript can solve all your problems, give you
shiny white teeth, make you a supermodel and get the chickweed out of your
lawn.  Fortunately, the instructor pointed this out in class. (^_^)  

        Her advice on web applications in general was this:

        Do it in HTML, if that doesn't cut it
        Do it with JavaScript, if that doesn't work
        Do it with an Applet, if that doesn't work
        You need to write an Application.

        It seemed like sound advice.
