Notepad is SO SIMPLE really, Luv. You can type everything in html text just as you would in a comment post here, then you can save the file as an .htm file extension and view it through IE. It will look just like it's going to look when you post it online.

I've always built my tables in Notepad and viewed them in IE - you can edit them and save them. Do you ever 'view source' of a web page or 'view partial source' of someone's comment post here?

I keep lots of text files in "My Documents" by opening a "new text document" and then typing my html text, saving it as BOTH a .txt extension and an .htm extension and then switching back and forth between the .txt extension and the .htm extension to view, and to edit.

I guess I need to explore it some...with someone around
who knows how to use it.

I have used “view source” to recapture one of my posts when
I needed to use it and hadn’t saved it! LOL!

Like when I lost all my files once, I went back and recaptured
several of my “important” tables. Took FOREVER! I was up
till 3 in the morning! Talk about desperate! LOL!
