Hello! I am teaching my friend how to make websites. I would like to keep the websites static, so that he does not [yet] have to learn PHP, worry about testing on his Windows machine, worry about the server configuration, security etc. The bad thing is that without some tool support he would have to repeat a lot of code, for example the ...
I have a development process question. Background: I work for a modest sized website where, historically, the designers created mockups/screenshots of what they wanted pages and components to look like, and the engineering team (myself included) turned them into html/css. This works relatively well from a code cleanliness perspective, ...

I can do this: <a href="download.php">Download</a> but should I be doing this another way? Javascript maybe? The above works but the window shows "Loading..." until the download starts.

I've just noticed that tidy_repair_string() is removing my non-breaking spaces from empty elements causing my table to collapse. Basically I've put in: <td> </td> and HTML Tidy is stripping them out to: <td> </td> which may or may not be some Unicode break but either way it's collapsing. The only related option I'v...

For example: <p>This is some very long text \n that spans a number of lines in the paragraph.</p> This is a paragraph that the browser chose to break at the position of the \n I need to find this position and insert a <br /> ...
I've been a big fan of MediaWiki and similar wiki-based text editors. I like the ability to quickly add text, collaborate, and share. However, there's always still the need for nicely formatted print output. Things like headers and footers (that say what I want them to say), page breaks, margins, etc. Most solutions I've seen involve so...
