I just use a simple freeware program called Arachnophilia and write my own code.

A cart is also server side and dreamweaver will be of very little help when writing actual code instead of just HTML. You can download freeware/pay for carts but you will still have to be able to go in and edit the code to make it fit your needs. If you are also plaaning on using your own credit card service instead of paypal this will also cause a crap load of issues in development. What is your other business btw.

Darth- I use paypal for my creditcards so at least thats a little easier. How do I FTP into my site. I can get in the file manager in my cpanel but can't copy the files anyway that I have found onto my local computer. you can take a look at the site I made with frontpage. www.deucesofdiamonds.com to see my other business. I build texas holdem tables but the site is over a year old and I need to update it thats why I'm tryin to figure all this out and integrate my wax sales into it

ftp://ftp.deucesofdiamonds.com/
right click and choose login as
enter your user/password which should be the same as your cpanal login. If this doesnt work try adding @deucesofdiamonds.com to the end of your username.
By the way your new site should not contain frames. Frames are evil.

Don't go pay for dreamweaver to build a card collection site. It's a great program, but you will be paying for features that you will never use for somthing so simple.
There are several good free HTML editors: nvu, amaya, and the aforementioned Arachno...
If you really want to get into the code, though, I highly recommend getting XMLSpy Home edition. It's free, and you write the code itself and can then preview it in a browser. Also, w3schools.com is a good free html tutorial site.

I need to hang out with you guys more often, lol. I use Notepad whenever I update SCF's NPN page (link is in my sig). Back when I had my own hobby website, I used NoteTab Lite (a freeware program). I liked it a lot but it didn't have a text color-coding feature. Does anyone know of a freeware HTML editor that has a text color-coding feature?
I learned HTML and CSS for free through websites like w3schools.com and htmlgoodies.com. I also bought a couple of HTML books. I love it so much that my ultimate career goal is to be a web designer.
Don't worry, even though the letters HTML look kinda scary at first, it not really all that hard to learn HTML to write your own code. Web design sites like those mentioned above also discourage frames. After looking at a few sites that use frames, I can see why.

I learned a lot from the same sites that you did. I have stacks of books of all different languages. I know a little bit of all of them because of that. I had fun doing it. I still do.
As far as the color-coding.... I'm not sure. I know Dreamweaver does. I know Mozilla does if you View Source a page. I'm not sure of anything else. But I've never used freeware stuff. Somebody else will have to answer that one.

One thing I forgot to mention. When I first started learning HTML, it was kind of ugly to have Notepad and the browser share the same screen space or to have to switch between the two applications whenever I wanted to see my latest webpage modifications. So I got a video card with 2 monitor inputs and a second monitor. This is one of the greatest improvements to my system I could've made. After installing the new hardware/software, all I had to do was change a few settings. Now I put Notepad (or whatever HTML editor I prefer) on one monitor and the webpage on the other monitor. Now whenever I make webpage modifications, I just click to save the HTML file in the HTML editor/Notepad, then click the browser refresh button to see the modified webpage. I can't see myself ever going back to a single monitor system again. Perhaps some day I'll add a 3rd monitor (for image editing/music playing/finding files and 4th monitor (for reading the latest posts in SCF)!
