Default Great. And I though I was alone here.
Glad to learn I am not the only one here with a preference for hand coding. As I have indicated before I use NoteTab Pro for html and Topstyle Lite (free) for css running them side by side. By inserting the code phrases for you with single clicks, like "<blockquote></blockquote>," from a menu on the side they speed things up a lot over, say, regular NoteTab. In a case like the one mentioned, if you select first it will put the selection inside the code beginning and closing.

I don't see anything wrong with using templates to work from or anything, I just like to see what I am doing and being able to understand it as I go so I can make any changes I want on the page, especially with positioning or spacing and the like.
