  • All wysiwyg HTML editors are capable of creating HTML they can’t edit
  • Its quicker to learn to fly a plane than to learn Dreamweaver
  • Its quicker to learn to fly a helicopter than to learn the Gimp
  • “Save as..” HTML usually means turn that document into HTML line noise
  • Nobody trusts their CSS hand edits (and nobody should)
  • You can nest your tables in HTML and you can also stick your face in the fan, neither are advisable
