Netscape Composer/Expert Profile
Expertise
Can answer most questions about formatting Web pages and building Web sites using Composer. I am familiar with most components of Compuser including publishing and html source code.
Experience in the area
I have been working professionally with computers for more than 40 years. I currently teach Web site development using xhtml at a major midwest university. While I now use Nvu, an open source upgrade to Composer, I started with Composer when it was first introduced. I taught Web site development using Composer for several years.
Publications
Multiple journals and conference procedings. Technical editor for a comprehensive xhtml book just recently published.
Education/Credentials
Ph.D. in Information Systems from the University of Cincinnati. Passed five part CDP exam in 1981. Began teaching at the university level part-time in 1980 and full time in 1986.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:
If you are now using composer, you may want to upgrade to Nvu. It is free from Nvu.com and works independently from a browser. Users of Firefox will like it. It provides a site manager for publishing that is pretty efficient.
