Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

My HTML writing is way out of practice. Any recommendations for a site builder? My host has the usual scripts, but I really don't like them.

I want to start off slowly, just to get the hang of it again. But eventually I want to build an informational website. Forums are easy and readily available, but the HTML editors have changed quite a bit since i last updated my site 3 years ago. Yes, 3 years, lol.

CuteFTP is still around and being updated? I've always used CLI FTP clients except when just downloading which I would just use a browser. (unless downloading lots of files, then back to CLI)

The last GUI FTP client I installed was for a user and it was FileZilla.

As for building a website. I would look at a Content Management System. Building one from scratch these days is foolish unless you have a completely new idea or extraordinary requirements.

You can Google "Top 10 CMS" and get several options.

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.

When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

Macs are Unix based. Don't they have "ftp"?

Cute FTP. If not that, find another one that supports segmented downloads. It makes a big difference in download speed for me.
