TiddlyWiki

If you would find useful to have the ability to create web pages on the fly, using your web browser as editor, but with WYSIWYG capabilities, you've got to try TiddlyWiki (http://www.tiddlywiki.com/). From the creators:

"TiddlyWiki is a single html file which has all the characteristics of a wiki - including all of the content, the functionality (including editing, saving, tagging and searching) and the style sheet. Because it's a single file, it's very portable - you can email it, put it on a web server or share it via a USB stick."

This is open source, free, fast, portable across platforms, and easy to use. I found a very nice place for hosting my personal wiki, www.tiddlyspot.com. If you are fond of html, this does not get better.

HTML Scroll Down Box for Code

To keep the size of the code chunks manageable, we can generate a scroll down box like the one below. This is easily done by using the code in the box when you write the post.

The following code creates a box: <div style="overflow: auto; height: 150px; width: 400px;"> <table style="width: 250px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody> <tr><td><code> PUT YOUR CODE HERE. </code> </td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div>

Note that the tags <code> and </code> are not necessary, however, they are handy to put things in courier font to differentiate the code from the rest of the text.
