How to get rid of unnecessary html code in Front Page

[ffaucher]

Does one know if a software (complement to MS Front Page) exists to eliminate repetitive unnecessary HTML code?

Use DreamWeaver is the best <br>&nbsp;there is also a good forum here of the same of which i am a member now dreamweaver has come with a few new products that support even asp & jsp <br><br>&nbsp;regards <p>Unicorn11<br><a href=mailto:webmaster@tripmedia.com>webmaster@tripmedia.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>Hi there it all likeminded fellows!!!!!!

use NOTEPAD it adds NO code at all ;]]] <br>and you don't need any forum to understand how to use it ;]]]

There is no compliment software with frontpage to remove excess HTML code - that is the problem with using it to design a site.&nbsp;&nbsp;You might try downloading allaires version of homesite from <A HREF="

http://www.allaire.com"

http://www.allaire.com</A>

and once you have it installed running the html validation settings&nbsp;&nbsp;on your pages.&nbsp;&nbsp;This will identify any code that is not necessary or badly nested tags (which frontpage does a lot of) and makes it easier for you to remove once it is identified.<br><br>You will also find that homesite is a great tool to work with - makes page development so easy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hope this helps.

FFaucher,<br><br>It's possible all the ugly &quot;superfluous code generated by Frontpage is there to deal with idiosyncracies / bugs of various versions of various browsers&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;these are the bane of all Web programmers.<br><br>If you decide you want to hand-code your pages as Iza suggests:<br>*&nbsp;&nbsp;you'll need to learn the idiosyncracies of Internet Explorer 4 and Netscape Navigator 4, the most commonly used browsers&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;in HTML and, if you use it, in Javascript.<br>*&nbsp;&nbsp;Rather than use notepad, download 1st Page 2000 from <A HREF="

http://www.tucows.com"

or, if you can't find it there, from <A HREF="

http://www.evrsoft.com"

(the creators, but they're in Australia)&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;&nbsp;it's a very good text-based editor, includes a very good HTML reference, and it's FREE!!
