Thanks again for your input.
I am aware of your suggestions, but in our situation, the shortest distance to being operational is to complete the HTML pages.
So, back to the original questions:
What are the best software tools to use to generate HTML pages? Dreamweaver? Will Dreamweaver facilitate correction of existing code, or is it better to start from scratch and compare the newly generated code?
Is the HTML Tidy cleanup generated code useable? It seems that it generates many reference lines near the head of the page. Is there a better option? Will UltraEdit (
http://www.ultraedit.com/products/ul...edit_tour.html) help perform this task?
What is the best way to approach the code cleanup process?
Is XHTML, or some other code better to integrate with X-Cart?
Is there a best doctype to use?
