Not everyone wants to know HTML inside out, and even if they do sometimes they prefer to concentrate their time on the design and look of their project (ie, me!), maybe with some HTML cleaning afterwards (which Dreamweaver also does). Anyway, i'm just trying Dreamweaver Studio MX 2004 install under wine now but i hold out no hope as it's listed the compatibility category "garbage" on the wineHQ site :) MX shows as bronze compatibility but you have to go back as far as 4.x to get as "good" as silver compatibility. Might be worth checking out http://www.nvu.com This is the alternative listed on the wine site and looking at it, it appears to give what you're after. WYSISWYG and lots of other things... HIH, i'll report on how the Dreamweaver / wine install goes. Martin. On Wednesday 27 April 2005 10:45, Grant Sewell wrote:

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. Regards Philip Radford.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.
