What I've learned so far:

1) We have admin rights to our computers
2) "Cities of the World" is the computer naming scheme
3) A "web" is the folder on your hard drive that you keep all your "web pages" in. We will be using the word "web" in every other sentence at least.

Suggestions?

I took a Frontpage training class last semester - and basically taught the class :p. If you have any experience with MS Office, you should be just fine. If anyone has a few MB of webspace that I can borrow for a while, I'll post the website that I built as a project for the class.

I'm here because I'm getting paid the same as if I was working and I felt like doing something different. Normally I do Access DBA stuff.

I, for one, am not training future web designers. Our department teaches all MS Office applications to the university staff and FP just happens to be some of the classes we offer.

3) is actually Microsoft's fault. Your instructor is apparently using the same terminology the app uses. Good for him/her!

Ugh...screw FrontPage. I used to use it to design pages for my company (I'm the webmaster slash tech support guy), but I got so sick of dealing with its crap that I finally ditched it and learned how to write HTML by hand.

Take a day or two and learn to write HTML. It's not at all difficult to learn and you don't have to deal with FrontPage's quirky BS. In the end, you'll be a lot happier.

If anything, you should have taken a class teaching Dreamweaver. Now that is some good software!

new school CS website - Done on short notice; nothing flashy but perfectly useable. Our project for the semester was to design (or in my case, re-design) a website for a staff or faculty member that wanted one. This one was kind of a pain though, because a)the proffessor teaching the class didn't know what he was doing and b) the proffesor whom I was assigned to for the project didn't care what I did. He said just re-design the homepage or something and that would be good; I don't think he understood that I needed to make a whole website, not just a webpage.

Don't need the webspace anymore; I didn't think this would still be here.

I just did the webpage for where I work using Dreamweaver MX. What a remarkable program. You can find it here. Took me like 3 weeks because I only worked on it a couple hours a day and I had to type in all the course descriptions because nobody had an electronic copy anywhere.

No, see, I'm not a web developer. I'm an Access DBA. I'm just here to do something different for a day (and still be paid).

Last couple hours have been spent learning how to do tables. We're basically learning how to do the same things you can do in Word, in FrontPage.

I made something slightly different. :D

If anyone has some webspace I'll upload it.
