    I did a freebie for my my daughters school, which was based on this opensource software. I modified it to include a some random image displays and book reviews, amongst other things.

    Dreamweaver is pretty good nowadays, and there is a place for Flash. I would consider also coding some html using just notepad and refreshing your browser, this is a good way of learning control over your website. For my 'notepad' I use a text editor called Crimson Editor.

    One tip for development down the path is to miminise your use of tables (to nil if possible) and use CSS as much as possible. I am working on a site at the moment where the number of tables is a quarter of what I would normally have.

    Cheers
    There was a young boy called Wyatt
    Who was awfully quiet
    And then one day
    He faded away
    Because he overused White

    Well off topic now - but that was a very progressive view point for 2004. I wish there were more people like you out there....even in 2006

    I suspect I am a disenter here as I feel that this type of home would be more authentic if the lime paster and lath was repaired. There are people who specialise in it and at times do demonstations . If the walls would take the repair then I believe that repair will achieve a better result. Also the thermal characteristics I understand to be better than plasterboard

    Default Warping

    Okay, I have the same problem, 1920(ish) home. I have heard all sides and you have all given me a lot of insight, but what about the warping? Can that be sanded flat again or "pinned" back up straight?
