okay, here is where i make life easier. we are going to use a web developement tool. They format the code and generally make life easier than looking at everythign in black and white, plus come with cool little auto-fill and WYSIWYG editors (What You See Is What You Get, an appropriate but inaccurate term.)
First off, my prefered developement tool right now is this:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...D/vwdsetup.exe
again, it is a Microsoft program that requires a .net passport. Again, they won't eat your soul, they are just a software company.
Register it. It makes life easier.
Oh, and it requires this:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
if you dont already have it, get it and install it first. okay.
