If thats what you want then practice your graphics and layout techniques. As long as you have the graphic skills then you can make a decent looking website using just tables and div layers as long as you know how. Considering you're willing to take the time to learn a program like Dreamweaver, why not put that little bit extra effort in and learn HTML?

Using a WYSIWYG editor and then looking at what code is generated from what you make is way easier.

Now'days you don't even need to know HTML, just some advanced Javascript and PHP functions for a good looking website.

I used to know basic HTML but I forgetted it...but it's ok now Mr Viola showed me the basics of DW over remote, I still need to know how to do Site Stats in PHP and how to make the central cell of the table put a scrollbar at the side when the data exceeds the boundries rather than resize

You can put the table in a form and in the centre cell place a "textarea" then set the character width to what you want, and the number of lines you want, you will then get scroll bars on the side of the "textarea" when the number of lines exceeds the value you set. Theres probably a more professional solution but this way works.
