Well, I went from having a 15 month old holding page doing absolutely nothing
to an actual clickable website in less than two weeks. All with the help of iWeb and a few internet buddies. And it is still evolving. And you know why? Because it’s actually enjoyable. Strange, but true. Yes, no more time-consuming messing around with tables and percentages, and guessing if layouts work. You can just see it all there before you. So, as my way of saying thanks for all of this, I’m going to try and do a few short articles on iWeb just to give a little bit back. Just to let others know of the little tricks and hints on using iWeb that I've learnt on my internet journey. Hope it helps. As time allows, I’ll be providing more iWeb hints and tips that you can use to help build your own site. As time goes on and knowledge matures, things I’m sure, will only develop into something bigger and better... [right, that’s enough pregnant puns - Ed.]

iWeb 2.0 update
iWeb 2.0 offers the ability to add HTML snippets directly into your pages. This facility renders the PayPal Buttons technique described in this article obselete. However, I will keep my articles essentially intact for the benefit of iWeb 1.0 users and also because the principles behind certain HTML snippets remain the same. I will be indicating if articles are applicable to version 1.0 or version 2.0 of iWeb.
