Cheap/free HTML editors for users?

Post #138,424 by admin 1/28/04 7:41:38 PM Reply	Cheap/free HTML editors for users? I just spent about 45 minutes trimming a MS Word generated HTML file from 1.6M to 200K (which is what the file was originally when I created it). I need.... really need... something to give the less technical people here to edit these web pages so I don't have to do this again. Suggestions?

Also teaches them to use an alternative web browser and email client, kill three birds with one stone. :) Some others I found: [link\|http://www.evrsoft.com/1stpage2.shtml\|http://www.evrsoft.com/1stpage2.shtml] [link\|http://webpage.vendercom.com/\|http://webpage.vendercom.com/] [link\|http://www.w3.org/Amaya/Amaya.html\|http://www.w3.org/Amaya/Amaya.html] [link\|http://www.flfsoft.com/HTMLBuilder.html\|http://www.flfsoft.com/HTMLBuilder.html] More: [link\|http://download.com.com/3150-2048-0-1-1.html?legacy=cnet\|http://download.com.....html?legacy=cnet] Take your pick, I reconmend Mozilla because obviously you have experience with it. *"Lady I only speak two languages, English and Bad English!" - Corbin Dallas "The Fifth Element"*

This was originally by Allaire (yes, the Cold Fusion folks), but I think they were taken over by Macromedia for better DreamWeaver integration. Around 1998 or so. Either way, it was one of the best HTML editors I'd found, and the WYSIWYG part actually produced readable HTML. -YendorMike [link\|http://www.hope-ride.org/\|http://www.hope-ride.org/]

I recently recommended the "Junior" version in [link\|/forums/render/content/show?contentid=136322\|Post #136322], when "Critter" was asking about something for his kid... It's not free (in either sense of the word), but the "PageWiz" (or something similar) version was rather cheap -- and I think I remember seeing something about multiple or site licenses being cheaper still. Might be worth looking into. [link\|mailto:MyUserId@MyISP.CountryCode\|Christian R. Conrad] (I live in Finland, and my e-mail in-box is at the Saunalahti company.)
