I'd like a simple html-editor
For a few webpages with a complex table and a few links,
I'd like to have a very basic HTML program.
What I'd like it to do, is :
- that the program is HTML-inspired, not with buttons and menus, etc
- give me a tag on a click
- to have it some colour to separate tags, so that I can see in one moment how many tables and rows I have, in the html-text
- that it is for free
What I'm not looking for is :
- a fancy program with rings and bells
- a complex thing (like dreamweaver) that f**** up the code when I'm not asking for it.
- a program that 'thinks' to know what I want.
thanks in advance !
Have you tried Seamonkey? (It does HTML 4.01)
I drop to text editor (vim) for clever edits.
I push it through "tidy" to sort out better CSS, etc. plus to convert to XHTML, if I want.
I also used to use TextPad (cheap), but don't bother with Windows any more.

i'm probably just dreaming aloud ...
what i've liked is, just to be able to write a webpage in HTML (just like Notepad, no more, no file managing, no buttons for images, no nothing) but only
the tags, in a list, to pick them out easily
and the tags in different colours so i could see the different ones in just one look
(like for exemple in a table to see right away where the coloms are and where the lines are, and how much, and no need to count and recount because they are all in black)
From a quick look, nvu is no longer under development and is essentially what I have in Seamonkey (which you don't get in Firefox, hence along comes nvu).
However, KompoZer is the successor to nvu, and...
Thank you!
Seamonkey is pretty basic and only handles HTML 4.01.
I've installed KompoZer, and it has lots of stuff I've been missing. XHTML, CSS, well organised publishing (I think). I haven't tried it in earnest yet, but it looks good.
(There's always Quanta, as well)

If you want a very simple text editor that recognizes code and colors it, try Programmers Notepad:
