Well, Martin -- I speak with hundreds of hotel guests, most (like,
99.9999%)
of whom know nothing about HTML, or any of the so-called HTML "standards"
to
which you (and others) refer.
The number one thing I hear about our website is that it is so much easier
to navigate and is actually chock-full of real information about the hotel
than most commercial sites. Too many sites are nothing but "fluff", and
cool graphics. I have tried to avoid that, in favor of stuff that
potential
hotel guests might actually be interested in seeing.
I write off this whole debate over HTML editors and technique as
nothing
more than the "DOS vs Windows" debate, redux. Ten (or was it 15 now?)
nope. there is a language with *rules* (you know, such things like an
ADIZ
in aviation). Frontpage ignores most of them.
Thanks for reinforcing my point. You, like we former DOS-heads once did,
seem to view these "rules" as inviolate and unbreakable. This, my friend,
will be your ultimate downfall.
DOS had rules, too. Windows first worked within them, then ignored them
and
made new ones.
Where is DOS now?

Jay,
I couldn't agree more with your comments about HTML. Who gives a flying fig
what the internal code is....you're not selling internal code. Your website
looks great and the wife and I are interested in coming all the way out
to Iowa City to see the town and Inn based solely on the excellent sales
job of the website. We live in the L.A. area and believe me, visiting Iowa
City wasn't on our priority list for vacation sites. But the next time
we're
driving the U.S., which we do every couple of years for a vacation now
that the kids are out of college and on their own, we're going to give your
place a try....again, based only on the very informative, user friendly and
visually attractive web site. Hell, I hope the internal code structure
does suck!!! That gives me confidence that someday I could buy a copy of
Front Page and do a much more modest site just to hang our vacation pictures
on LOL!!
Best Regards,
Jim
