Ahh.... you are not getting my point at all - pointing to some website is
not the name of the game.
I am NOT against using  a simple editor(instead of an IDE) to build
websites, but if someone wants to develop using IDE , then simply RESPECT him and his requirement. What i am hinting here is just sheer 'respect' and answering his requirement, but at the same time - just advice him/ her to use
;efficient; tools to build robust websites.

aha - I am *not* against using IDEs. I use quanta on linux and textmate on mac for html. What I *am* against is using WYSIWYG editors for generating html/css. If I click on 'list' in quanta I get the framework for a list. But I *see* ul and li etc. That is not a problem. No one is asking people to manually type everything. This is a far cry from trusting something to generate code. You cannot build robust websites that way. You *must* be conversant with CSS and HTML - there is no other go. Especially if you want to build cross-browser compatible websites. Of course, if you want to build IE only websites - no problem use doze tools and forget about CSS and HTML.
