Hi everyone,

Just wondering about everyones thoughts on this matter.

The one thing that is preventing us from fully utilising Linux is the absence of a 
HTML editor similar in functionality to that of Dreamweaver.

I'm sure that there are plenty of code based editors like HotMetal Pro provided 
our staff know how to write HTML code but does any know of or can recommend a 
WYSIWYG based editor.

It does not need to have all the bells and whistles like Dreamweaver but as long 
as it can do the essentials.

Regards to all.

Quanta is pretty good - it has a "split screen" approach, but IMO not in the same 
league.
BlueFish is a nice editor, but doesn't appear to have the WYSIWYG aspect of things.
Screem has a nice "Preview" function that's part of the editor, but it's not an 
editable preview.
Mozilla have an editor that's also been released standalone as NVU.  Apparently 
good; I've not used it though.
There's also OpenOffice - that has an editor too, but I have not used that either.

If you're desperate for the clutches of Dreamweaver, then you could have a shot at 
running it under WINE or Cross-Over Office.

Nothing beats having just a modicum of HTML understanding, though.  With that in 
your repertoire of knowledge, any editor is your friend.

Grant.
