texte = For what it's worth, I only had experience from Junior High, programming very dumb stuff in BASIC on an Apple, then got involved in Graphic Design (Mac/PC Adobe stuff, etc.), then basic HTML, then basic javascript before diving into WebDNA, which I picked up quickly. I am by no means an advanced programmer of any language and many folks on here are *far* more advanced than myself, but my point is that WebDNA is unusually accessible and, for me anyway, just 'made sense'.I agree with John that *any* programming experience is helpful, but I feel that if someone's going to 'make a go' of any language, WebDNA's a great place to start.Ok that's all.-Dan------------------------------------------------------------http://www.StrongGraphicDesign.comhttp://www.SearchBoise.com(208) 319-0137 | Toll-free p/f 877-561-1656------------------------------------------------------------On Tue, 02 Dec 2003 14:03:56 -0500 John Peacock
