Any suggestions for web-editor

You want your kids to create their site under your sub-domain, right? What about using wordpress for personal website? I think it's very easy for everyone to write anything they like in your blog..

Good question - in some ways it depends on what you mean by good/easy. I say this because most easy packages will add loads of extra markup which makes it hard to maintain the site outside of the package it was designed in. However you probably know this and at the risk of being shouted down - Frontpage is always an option (it will however completely rewrite beautifully hand(notepad) written html). Good luck finding a decent package and let us know which one you have chosen. Personally I have always used notepad :sigh: so that I can have total control.
You always pass failure on the way to success.
I've used FP in the past, but it's not for sale anymore. Expression would be the curent choice (with cleaner code) but as I've said above, licensing for 3 PCs is a bit expensive. Anyway, I've stopped using notepad/html eyars ago. I'm lazy, and like the convenience of the packages, and most of the time I can still edit the generated code for some fine-tuning. Same way I use .NET to drag-and-drop a datagrid, instead of manually writting code to generate markup for a table with the recods from some DB :|

That's a good analogy - sounds like I should take a page out of your book and stop using notepad.

Your welcome! As wordpress is written in PHP, you need to have the FastCGI extension in your IIS.

I'm looking to finally update my personal web-site, and I also want my kids to to create their on 'sub-webs'. My hosting package is based on Windows/IIS with FP extensions. Any suggestions for a good/easy web-editor the kids can also master?
I've been using Expression Web since beta. Not sure how kid friendly it is (although at 10 and 12, I'm fairly sure I'd have been able to pick it up quite easily).
"On one of my cards it said I had to find temperatures lower than -8. The numbers I uncovered were -6 and -7 so I thought I had won, and so did the woman in the shop. But when she scanned the card the machine said I hadn't. "I phoned Camelot and they fobbed me off with some story that -6 is higher - not lower - than -8 but I'm not having it." -Tina Farrell, a 23 year old thicky from Levenshulme, Manchester.

Notepad.
Sorry but that's about the stupidest suggestion I have ever seen. I don't understand why people think this is *cool*. If anything it really discredits you. Don't mean to go off on you, don't even know you but put a little more thought and energy into your answers. Notepad is about the lamest response. If you want to use an ASCII text editor there are a hell of a lot of better options out there. Lemme guess your search engine of preference is your phone book too right? Why even use a PC just grab a pencil and paper.

What about your blog engine you have for an article here? It is a simple one and good :-D

Well, it's a bit too raw, IMO. Now, if it used CSS and had a decent web-based editor, yeah, I'd recommend it. :) Marc
