best free html editor

[rupss]

hello,

i am looking for a free html editor. until now, i've been using Dreamweaver, but my subscription code expired, so i am going to switch to a free editor, since I know there are lots out there. does anyone have any suggestions to which one they find the best?

i have a working knowledge of html, but i really liked the format in dreamweaver, where you could choose to see the code, layout, or both. that way, i could design pages without actually using the html too much, but could still tweak it if necessary.

which editor/s would you suggest?

Try PageBreeze, I dunno if it is the best though

Try Nvu. It has a normal mode where you can see what you design, as well as a source mode where you can read the HTML code it generates.

Google <3 lol.
But anyway, nvu is the best. Download it if you want a good one 8)

nvu has lots of bugs and linspire discontinued development... the open source community has taken over devleopment but since nvu name and logo are copyrighted the name is now Kompozer....

Kompozer is nice but it really depends what you are looking for and what platform... on linux there are several others (not sure if they're cross platform) but a couple to look at are bluefish and scream...

Fully functional albeit with a no frills interface.

I don't know if this is the best out there, but I use Microsoft Visual Web Developer.

Another vote for Kompozer, which I used until I got myself a copy of Dreamweaver CS3.

dreamweaver or MIK(C)ROSOFT frontpage

The best in my opinion is Kompozer.

Im not sure if thats the right address, just try googling it if it doesnt work.

hmm...i think the free PHP Designer 2005 is a great editor for all HTML, PHP and other stuffs

 

[dunkjmcd]

never trust the design layout in dreamweaver. Best idea is to use notepad++ and refresh the hell out of IE and Firefox.

If you want to pay the best one is BestAddress HTML Editor 2008, and I know you asked for the best "free" one.

Well, it is a little on the simple side, and you have to know HTML, but I just use notepad which comes standard on Windows, but it still works. So if all else fails, just use notepad!
