Beginner Click/Drag Web Design

Sex McSexenson · 09-17-2008, 12:05 AM

Hey guys, may have been asked before, but just looking for a quick response if possible.

Basically, I have no HTML/Coding experience and am just looking for a program that offers some simple click/drag, add boxes/nav bars, custom background type deal. If that makes any sense.

I'm trying to make a simple web page for my school's club ultimate frisbee team. Just listing news, roster, schedule, results, photos etc. Doesn't need to be anything very professional. Any suggestions of quality programs would be very helpful. Microsoft Publisher is the only thing I have on my computer right now and is a huge pain in the ass.

Thanks

I use jQuery lately.

Basic Drag and Drop jQuery example. It's only a few lines of code to set it up. Most of the work you'd have to do is the CSS styling of the elements heh.

Edit: Er wait, I misunderstood what you were asking. I think you meant a WYSIWYG editor. If so, you can get Dreamweaver for that, not sure if there is a free/open source one or not. That said, you could probably learn html/css stuff in a day or so.

For what you plan on making you may want to check out Wordpress. It's intended for blogs but you can make entire websites with it really easily. I think there are some video tutorials for Word-Press at css-tricks. No clue how informative they are though.

Yeah I don't think he's looking for DHTML lol.

I would go get yourself a free Wordpress, save yourself the hassle.
