      Yes, I know that it can produce something that might be called HTML on a good day!

      I tested a couple of them WYSIWYG editor a year ago and the code they produced was usualy yickety ack....
      Most of them could mess up code just by loading a page and save it agin without making any changes....

      I'm going to test Hotmetal pro as soon as i get it downloaded...

        You can't beat dreamweaver, but give firstpage a try, it isn't completly WYSIWYG but it's a great free program.

          The reason I abandoned the WYSIWYG editors thre years ago was that I tried to get a table correct and it just woulden't...

          It worked on a new page but not in the one I was editing.....

          Opened the file in notepad to check why it wouldnt work.....

          Messy dont begin to describe it

          Every damn letter had its own set of tags.....

          It made me wonder why WYSIWYG editors don't have a option to "render" the code when you are finished and are about to save the file?

            Another vote for Firstpage. Cool little program!

              I try to stay away from WYSIWYG editors most of the time, mostly because they keep removing my PHP code. But... Mozilla Composer is decent.

                used Dreamweaver 4 for my site, and it rocks (the prog, dunno about the site ). I've tried MS Frontpage (eh..but Image Composer is cool), MS Publisher (klunk) and Pagemill (klunk).

                  Dreamweaver is nice - it looks after your code better than most. It is expensive to pay for though.

                  I had a quick look at the Mozilla editor a while back (I assume that it has moved on since then), and it showed a lot of promise, but wasn't there yet.

                  But I have never found anything to replace good ol' hand-coding. If you are running the site off a database, then you can build a custom editing engine to suit without too much bother. If it is static, then in the end nothing acutally beats experience and time on the the HTML.

                  Good luck!

                    Dreamweaver and Frontpage are ... ok.

                    Not great, just ok. They'll mangle some pages, and be fine for others. *shrug*
