WYSIWYG editors include Frontpage & Dreamweaver(pay for them), Frontpage Express (free but no longer supported but still found. Do a search on this site for a link) and Netscape Composer (also free - try the PC World disk and install a full version of Netscape). 'Notepad on Steroids' (as one of my friends referred to it) include Homesite and Hot Dog - find them on the tucows.com site. You do need to know HTML commands to use it. Then, of course, there's my favourite - Notepad. HTML knowledge essential. |

| 35735 | 2002-02-15 09:11:00 | I had a quick look at the page of the one that Ben Don (!) recommended but can't see what the price is without looking further. A couple of free ones are Arachnophilia at www.arachnoid.com and the one I use the most: 1st Page 2000 at evrsoft.com I started off doing web pages in Notepad, but soon wanted something that could insert tags for me rather than typing them out all the time, and a search and replace tool. It is also handy having the tags in a contrast colour to the text. That's what these two do, and much much more. Remember though, they are primarily HTML text editors. |

I only use it when I'm feeling lazy though, because as Iain says good old notepad does most of what I need and it get's the grey matter turning over too! I think coffee cup do a good free one as well. |
