iWeb revisited

Wed, 9 Dec 2009 18:13:02 -0500

Well, I am giving this iWeb tool another shot - trying to get text to wrap around a graphic element, which the text inspector seems to imply can be done... but you have to cut and paste the graphic element, which seems a little awkward to me.

I also can’t get the text to wrap around a picture on the right side yet... though at least this is better than nothing...

In plain old HTML I got so used to putting pictures in tables that it is almost second nature to me now... Talk about an ugly solution to the problem.

I do like the multimedia options inside iWeb, looks like it is easy to embed audio, video, slide shows, photos, galleries, and even podcasts... but controlling layout is non-trivial.

What is this MobileMe stuff?

I don’t really know what I am doing with iWeb, it is a confusing application. I much prefer poking at HTML with vim or emacs, but I figured I’d try this out just to see how it works. Publishing appears to be trivially easy, but get the layout right is a pain. I miss PageStream, now that was a real page layout application.

MobileMe is a silly name for a web site/service, but it is a heck of a lot better than .Mac (which confuses punctuation checkers and my brain).
