    Hi,

    I need to do a quick job editing a site coded with CSS styling (DIVs only, no TABLEs) and so I am looking for a Free Editor that I can use quickly.

    Using my Dreamweaver 4 does not allow me to do that.

    So, can anyone recommend a Free CSS Editor, that is easy to use?

    Thanks in advance.

    Why do you need an editor? Can't you just use Notepad or a simple word editor?

    What I mean is a Visual editor where I can immediatelly see the changes I make, instead of keeping reloading the browser for every minor change.

    Best free visual editor is FireFox + Firebug;)
    Seriously. You can do all changes and view it right in browser.
    After that you can save modified code as html page using (again) your browser.

    If you're on a Mac, you can use Coda.

    Kompozer has some CSS capabilities http://www.kompozer.net

    Not sure if it's what you need, but it's free and fairly easy to use.

    The best I have used (for many years now) is HTML-Kit (for Windows O/S).

    HTML-KIT and or notepad!! ( I personally like both! But HTML-KIT does color coding, easier on the eyes! ) - Forget WYSIWYG... Do it the right way... Because the only way that you can truly see your changes is by viewing them in a browser and then some...

    Good Luck!

    Try Notepad ++ it's free and has syntax highlighting

    Or try PSPad which has built-in files comparator ;)
