The user seeks pre-made HTML templates that simplify page sizing and alignment. Recommendations include using wiki software like DokuWiki for easier management and the Firebug add-on for Firefox to inspect and troubleshoot existing code before deciding to rebuild the site from scratch.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of HTML and CSS fundamentals
  • Familiarity with WYSIWYG editors and their limitations
  • Basic knowledge of web development tools like Firebug
  • Experience with content management systems, specifically DokuWiki
NEXT STEPS

  • Explore DokuWiki setup and customization options
  • Learn how to use Firebug for debugging HTML and CSS issues
  • Investigate other WYSIWYG alternatives for future projects
USEFUL FOR

Web developers, designers, and anyone tasked with updating or maintaining websites created with outdated tools or complex code structures.

I'm trying to fix up my dads website but the old version seems to have been made using some sort of WYSIWYG editor so the code is completely senseless and complicated. So I think it would be quicker to start and just re make the website from the ground up but I haven't got the time to fiddle with all the alignments and page sizing so I was wondering if anyone knew of somewhere I could get a template of a website that already has the coding for page sizing and alignments sorted?

Thanks
A.

It's not an answer to your exact question but perhaps still helpful: What I did for my homepage is to install some wiki software (dokuwiki in my case, but the exact choice doesn't matter) and make the pages editable by no one except me.

As far as I know, there hasn't been any messy scripted web page that could run away from Firebug check. You can install the FireBug add-on in your firefox and let's see if it can help your problem first before recreating the whole site.
