It was really a matter of language - when they list menu paths or mention a
button-name. When you're doing something for the first time you're not
entirely sure that the thing you think is equivalent actually is :-)

I had come to the conclusion that it was worth a try. I have both quanta
and bluefish installed, and I fired up quanta. For the most part I managed
the first part - the ui design - except for almost the last thing where it
asks for a text area. I added that but it says to set it to 5 rows by 40
columns. Unlike the text entry boxes I didn't get a properties box when I
added that. How do you do that? Thanks
OK, I sussed it. Just add cols="40" rows="5" after the name.
Arghh!! Now it
assumes that I've got mysql set up. Google to the rescue.
