Edit: When you download it, add the .EXE ending to it, otherwise it will download without a file extension. Ofcourse, you can rename it later.

Edit2: It seems it is version 7.5, which I have allready. But it is still a great package!

Hi Mike,

is the HTML code produced done in "brute force" or optimized way?
I remember friend did pages in FrontPage ( some older version ) and it positioned elemtens using spaces (  , even 100x ), which was a bit scary.

It uses frames and tables. You can set it to work in different ways. Give it a try.

Ok,

will do. I think I have some version as "full" on some magazine cover CD.


Thanks for the tip,
Petr

Would this be similar to using Dreamweaver Mike?

Hi Michael,

I visited the site. Looks good, sounds good, but.... before I download it and spend time at it can you tell me in a vew global lines how the program works. Is it a CMS like program or is it more or less a page oriented design program such as frontpage were I have to create the site page by page.

At the moment I am using Web2Date CMS for simplicity and speed. I just need to focus on the contents and not on page design. Besides Web2Date I use WYSIWYG webdesigner. It works like MSWord. Create a page drop your items, copy page, new items etc. But in the end I still love the simple CMS program.

It is more a visual design program like frontpage but much easier to manage.
You don't need a database to run the site.

The newest version have some kind of CMS functionality I heard but I can't bet money on that.

If you are a fan of CMS software, then NOF is not the right thing for you I guess.
