I write all my web pages in NoteBook, a plain text editor. I've got maybe 80 pages in it now, but had more earlier. I just don't like dedicate web page editors as they make the code hard to read and enclude scripts where I don't know what's going one and have lost control of my own page.

All my web pages call a header script at the beginning and a footer script at the end. The footer just ends the page, but the header is interesting. It sets the page color scheme, writes a small table in the upper right with my picture (naturally; it liiks to a full sized image), a link to my home page, a link to my eMail program online, and a link to send an eMail back to me. I fill in that subject line with the title of the page so I know what someone was looking at when they write me.

The rest of the page can be pretty streaight forward. If I tire of the background image, I change it once in the header script, and instantly all pages across my website call the new header and show the new background. It is the same with fonts and stuff. I wrote header script years ago, maybe ten, so I would have to go back and learn it again to really make big changes. But it's functional for what I need, and having written it in NotePad it's easy to read and change.
