Good HTML Editor?

lAnonymousl · 15-April-04, 12:01 AM

Just wondering if you guys know where I can find a good, noob-friendly,and free

HTML editor. I'd like to kick off the member reviews with a Lian-Li PC-70 review before I tear it all to hell.

As it stands now, I use the one ebay supplies to its sellers for all my html needs.

Thanks.

Notepad. Heh. Download a demo of like Dreamweaver while you learn HTML. I think CuteHTML is free, dunno, haven't really looked into a WYSIWYG editor in a while.

HTML isn't that hard man. I would just get a HTML reference book and use the ol' fashioned notepad.

If you must, CoffeeCup is quite popular and easy to use.
Dreamweaver is good too. It's expensive, but if you can get it (

), it's very easy to use.

I have An old version of Adobe Pagemill on a CD-ROM somewhere, if I find it I will post again in here.
Still my all-time favorite for WYSIWYG editors although I also use notepad now.

You can't go wrong with just notepad and a browser.

With notepad you will be able to organize the code you are entering in a fashion that is comfortable to you (ie spacing). You will also not run into a ton of extra code that does absolutely nothing just because some HTML generator threw it in there. Also you will be able to do more in notepad then many of the generators even offer.

With any browser you will be able to save you file and just reload it in the browser and you instantly can see exactly what you have created.

There are some excellent reference books out there for HTML and such (my personal favorites being the SAM's Teach Yourself editions) that will give you a list of about 95% of the tags that you will use in HTML. Not to mention I am sure that the other pimps here will probably also offer a helping hand... myself, you can contact me via PM, or one of the IM programs and I would be glad to asssist in either looking over some code for you or explaining how to do/get something done with it.

yeah, notepad covers all my HTML/CSS/Javascript needs. I never cared for WYSIWYG editors for some reason, i always preferred the "feel" of the raw code..

Notepad gets another vote from me

Unfortunately, Glitterkill seems to be allergic to HTML done that way, so I'm trying out Dreamweaver now. So far, I don't like it at all
