Is there a way to do tables and bulleted lists in Visual Site Designer?

I'm working on a small website for an Ohio parrot rescue. Their website designer moved away and no one else volunteered. <smile> I've never used CSS (I said it was a long time ago, didn't I) ASP or any of the new stuff. Any advice on where to go to learn this stuff would be welcome. Any advice on good, cheap web hosts would also be welcomed.

The site is simple so I'll be trying to teach myself as I go along. So far I'm really impressed with CoffeeCup and think it will be more than adequate for my modest needs.

My most urgent need at the moment is how to create a bulleted list.

Thanks!

you can learn about CSS via the internet in a lot of different places, here's a few links that might help you get started with it, it's very very helpful in how much work it saves when you do a lot of changes to sites. Basically puts a lot of the styling setups such as fonts, colors, graphics, backgrounds, you name it into one place to change it for all your pages. Much easier than having to change the code on every page of your site every time you change your menu, or something that you have on all pages.

I don't know how much VSD makes use of CSS as I don't use VSD for building anything, only check it when I need to help someone with it. I do know it creates them for some of the themes, just don't know how deep it goes.

Hope those help and I'm sure others have some great links too for it :)

Hello Alice,

While completely NOT answering your question (not being rude, I just don't use VSD, and would be completely useless to you :D)... What is the site address? I've heard of a few Parrot Rescues (as well as other exotics) and like to keep track of them as I have had need to pass that info on to quite a few people.

Thanks in advance and good luck with your new endeavors.
