It is all you really need. Most office developers will save time and trouble by using the HTML or WWW capabilities of the tools they use now. PageMaker 4.5, WordPerfect 8 and 9, Word 97, WordPro, AmiPro, Publisher, and so on have some web publishing features. So do Quattro Pro, Excel, and Lotus . . . The WebMaster has tried many of these, and believes that a fundamental grounding in HTML is needed to get out of tight places quickly.
All programs have bugs, errors in operation.
Such buggy programs produce pages that need tweaking by hand to work correctly. The reasons for the following rules are practical ones, not arbitrary matters of style. Please feel free to discuss these with me if you disagree. If you maintain a site directly via FTP or wish to use FrontPage 98, you will sacrifice CSU-related automatic navigation bar creation and other comforts, because you will have to work in a subweb isolated from the logical structure of the university's pages. Often it does not cooperate with parts of itself.
