The story of Coda > So, we code web sites by hand. And one day, it hit us: our web workflow was wonky. We’d have our text editor open, with Transmit open to save files to the server. We’d be previewing in Safari, adjusting SQL in a Terminal, using a CSS editor and reading references on the web. “This could be easier,” we declared. “And much cooler.”

Coda is a commercial text editor and web development application for Mac OS X. It's developed by Panic, Inc. – the same people who produce Transmit FTP. If you use a Mac, then you need to look at Coda – plain and simple.

Embedding EVFTP on Google Sites
Using the STYLE Attribute with Google Sites

If you are using Google Sites to embed EVFTP, then you will discover very quickly that CSS isn't supported in the standard way. But that doesn't mean that you can't use CSS attributes with Google Sites - it just means that you will have to be a bit more creative about how you write your HTML.

In a Nutshell:

• You will have to embed CSS properties inside of each HTML tag using the style attribute.
• Properties need to be contained within double-quotes: style=”foo”.
• Just like CSS, multiple properties are separated with a semi-colon ( ; ).
