Two things:

1) Fix your caps lock key

2) If you want to build web sites, then learn HTML. Otherwise, you simply
will never be able to build good web sites. DW is simply a helper for those
that know HTML. Any desktop HTML editing product that claims to build web
sites without you having to know HTML is either a) lying or b) producing
really crappy web sites for you.

Caps are harder to read. And they usually mean that you are SHOUTING! 8)

My reply was in reference to her list of books.
