To the best of my knowledge there isn't a WYSIWYG HTML editor for Linux. Dreamweaver is one of the reasons Vmware/W2K is still on my machine - handling big websites with emacs or vi is just too much like hard work.
Well there's Netscape / Mozilla composer, that provides a WYSIWYG editing environment. It has several different views, from plain html to full previewing and editable wysiwyg. Frontpage seems to me to be responsible for most of the fouled up html on the web, but I'm sure Derek has tried and rejected Moz and Netscape composer as not providing enough. Works for me, though I prefer Kate - but then I freely admit I'm not trying to do anything very fancy.
Yes, if it's just a WYSIWYG editor you need then Mozilla composer might do the trick. If you need site management tools (I maintain thousands of pages of XML and HTML, plus CGI scripts and a MySQL backend) then you need a lot more. I've tried Frontpage and was delighted to boot it out of the door. Dreamweaver does a much better job, but still isn't perfect. I'd love a good Linux solution to come along... -- 10:10am up 6 days, 2:46, 1 user, load average: 0.05, 0.01, 0.00
