iNet Over Matter:  HTML Editors An Internet Resource Page  by: Bob in Houston

 Netscape Composer v.7.1  - or     Mozilla Composer  -   A component of Communicator, Composer is extremely easy to use, highly functional and accurate in generating basic standard code. The user interface provides graphical, word processor style point and click editing plus insertion of raw code via dialog boxes. I write almost all my pages and edit them online in Composer.  - FREE

   Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004  - Expensive  

   AOL Press -  I have used this free editor to rough out frame sets from scratch. The graphical interface is very nice for this function. You may or may not find it convenient for other wysiwyg editing.  - FREE

  Frontpage Express -   ugh! - Not for me, but probably ok for Microsoft devotees.
Encourages use of methods that are proprietary and/or require server compliance. As far as I could find, it makes no clear distinction between what is standard and what is proprietary, nor between what requires server compliance and what doesn't. This in my view can make use hazardous for the novice author.   - FREE

  NoteTab - Absolutely Super for all text, including HTML, writers. When you need a text function, look to NoteTab first. This is my second most used program for maintaining web pages.

Automated Code Wizard Editors

I've tried these, but I don't use them as much as others, but I go to them more than I
used to. Some of my best friends swear by their favorite of them. 

  1st Page 2000 - Top of the line FREE. May be a little complicated for beginners.
          Here is a review of 1st Page 2000
             **** NOTE there are many reports of virus or trojan infections in 1st Page 2000. This is due to FALSE positive results with several antiVirus programs (note added 03/18/04 07:37 pm)....

  Quanta Plus -  A web development tool for the K Desktop Environment. Quanta is designed for quick web development and is rapidly becoming a mature editor with a number of great features. added - 04/01/04 02:33 pm  - FREE

  EZpad 3.0 Official HomePage - Very neat, but sadly v.3 is a memory hog. V.4 is
in the works and will hopefully solve the problem. FREE - belongs in your arsenal. 

  CoffeeCup - 

  HomeSite-  Top of the line not  free... Used by many Pros.
