Chapter 26. Editing HTML

The easiest and most reliable way to create a Web page is to use a WYSIWYG editor. But no matter which editor Web authors use, they often reach a point where they want to do something that's perfectly possible in an HTML Web page but for which their WYSIWYG authoring program offers no buttons or menu items. If you reach that point, you might want to move beyond Composer into the realm of the HTML source file itself.

This chapter introduces you to HTML source files and how new tags and attributes are applied.

This chapter assumes that you have already installed Netscape Communicator 4.7 and its built-in Web-authoring program, Composer. If you have not, visit http://wp.netscape.com/download/archive.html and download Netscape Communicator version 4.7 for your system. (It's free.)

This chapter also assumes that you have downloaded a free trial of the HTML editor HTML Assistant Pro. You can download it from http://www.exit0.com.
