My wife recently started learning Dreamweaver. I bragged to her that I was a DW pro. But the fact is I know nuts about DW. Just yesterday she told me to create a personal homepage for her using DW. I tried cramming all those html thingy but I am still unable to get anything started. I really don't want her to know I am a braggart and ruin the good image she has of me. Can any kind DW pros help me out please? I just need a simple homepage.

Thank you.

I'm sorry if I had posted in the wrong section.

She probably already knows.

Firstly have you designed anything or have you gone straight into Dreamweaver? Do you want help with the designing, coding (most ditch Dreamweaver as it isn't very good but im guessing you dont know html or css) or both.

As Actionpack says a pre-built WordPress theme might be a good idea but you should at least know some html and css if you want to customize it.

I've sent you a mail xD

And yeah bragging but not knowing is kinda stupid lol, I remember doing that myself before years ago >.<

Using dreamweaver isn't a good idea either when you're starting with making websites, you can better just use a code editor like notepad++ ;)

Oh don't worry you'll have countless opportunities to look stupid to your Wife. :D

I recommend just saying: "Look Dreamweaver is crap, sure I can use it but let's try to make it from scratch!". That way it looks like you're knowledgeable enough to say it's not good enough. Then just learn HTML and CSS (trust me, they're very easy) and use something like Notepad++ to make it.

I know coding from scratch seems impossible at first, but it truly is easy! And it's rewarding to know you did it all yourself! Oh and Dreamweaver actually is crap, it bloats your code terribly.

      Anybody that thinks flying cars were possible are idiots. Everyone would basically need a pilot licence, can you imagine how insane and dangerous that would be, people can barely handle driving on land safely right now.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By zikalify · Posted

      Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
