I am starting my work to develop an intranet reporting website in php and html. I wanted to know if there are any templates for page layout, so that i can quickly select the look of the page and then start all my coding for the reporting system. i would really appreciate if anyone could help me with few links.
ofcourse, i am looking for free templates only, because i am using it only for page layout. not willing to pay for this. Else if there is already a free reporting website which can be changed according to my needs then I would appreciate that. Thanks :)
I've used this with success: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/layout/
It's not a full-blown layout like you might expect, but it overcomes a common design pattern flaw that causes HTML and CSS to overrun the screen when some sort of vertical menu is put on the left side. Resizing is a great plus, and the CSS reset makes IE flaws virtually a thing of the past.
Here's a semi-ugly example of what it can do: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/layout/adv_layout_source.html
Related to this, I can't say enough about Jquery Datatables (http://datatables.net/) for the functionality it brings to plain tabular data such as sorting, filtering, paging, show/hide detail, etc. My company's report site immediately moved to a new level thanks to datatables and themeroller.

I'm looking to edit a simple html/css template into something that I want.
My only problem is that I'm not good enough with html/css to be able to layout everything fine regardless of the screen size and browser.
So I was wondering what is a good program which can help he edit this html.
I was thinking something that kind of takes the html and css as input and I can just delete certain elements or add things and it automatically creates the correct html for it.
Any Suggestions?
(I don't mind if its paid or free)
Dreamweaver is good.
You could also use Firebug in Firefox and see what the html does and delete the html from a simple html editor program.

I realise that this question may get downvoted, but I'll try to outline my needs as clearly as possible.
Basically I've been looking at Perch, a very simple CMS that can be added in at the end of a website design. For me, its core benefits are its ease of use - simply adding a line of code for areas where content may change. It also has a very simple admin area.
I've looked at concrete5 and that doesn't seem to be as simple.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a simple CMS? I am fundamentally a Web designer, not developer, and am looking for something as quick to set up as Perch, but free.
By simple CMS I mean simple to install and easy for someone with no technical knowledge to understand on the admin side. Also simple in its implementation.
The sites are simple, with maybe a blogging functionality but other than that there is only a need to edit text and images.
Thanks in advance!
If you are looking for a free alternative to perch, I think you should look at couchcms. It is quite similar to perch but is open source.
I'd recommend AnchorCMS.com, its simple, dead easy to use and open source (Anchor - Github).
You didn't mention any specific site needs and that would be a factor in determining the best CMS solution. However, based on what you stated, I would suggest looking at Wordpress. It has a lot of functionality and can be extended to accommodate the needs of most websites. It is very simple to learn and there is a vast community of users/developers who can help get you up to speed with using Wordpress. In my opinion, Wordpress is the best choice for someone wanting/needing to learn CMS development. Later, you may want to move to Joomla or Drupal.
Define "simple"? Small code base? Easy to administer? Doesn't require a bunch of extensions?
My 3 standards are WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal, ordered by increasing complexity of the site's needs. I can have a very nice site put together in a few hours with any of them after some experience. There's no such thing as a CMS without a learning curve.

I am a server-side java developer without experience (nor much interest to be honest) in web design (basics on html and css only). However, I need to build a website as part of my work.
Ideally, I would like a tool with similar functionalities as http://www.jimdo.com, but with the possibility of geting the generated html files and deploy them anywhere.
I have tried Kompozer and Dreamweaver but I would like something simpler.
Any ideas ?
You could try BlueGriffon ( http://bluegriffon.org/ ) which is open source and works ok.
But in my opinion it's not going to be simpler than just using the basic skills you have and putting together a plain layout based on html tables.

I would like to generate a list of all the web pages in my website (contains 500 pages and more) which link to an external website.
Before I start trying to code this one, I would like to know if something ready made exists so I don't go into all the hassle for nothing.
If you know of any, or have used any, please share.
Thanks
For link checking, I use Xenu's Link Sleuth.
The W3C link checker will give you a list of all the links and tell you which ones are working. It should be pretty trivial to scrap the output to show only external links.
Have you considered using a website sniffer ? There's a lot of free tools that can explore your website and list your pages.
Hope this helps :)

Eventually, the easiest way was with an SQL Query in the database, so make sure you check if it is do able when you have a similar problem, via SQL before trying to find external programs.
Thanks to everyone for suggestions.

Is there a website where I can download free css/html templates for a website to support multiple browsers and resolutions?
(I want to make sure I can make use of client's entire screen and not show my website in the middle with "spares" on the sides)
Simple googling will bring you this:
http://www.freecsstemplates.org/
Tried it once, was easy to use.
This should get you started http://csstinderbox.raykonline.com/ the technique is commonly known as fluid layouts.
I've always preferred using Andreas Viklund's stuff. It's easy to tweak and some of his stuff is purposed just for being widely compatible. http://andreasviklund.com/templates/#all/1/list
