What is the best value for money HTML editor?

use coffee cup its windows only but its good and there is a free version that is pretty much DW minus the wysiwyg. and the $50 version is a carbon copy of DW

 

I personally use Kompozer http://www.kompozer.net (It's free)

 

Notepad++ is simple to use, works for a large array of languages, uses nice colour coding. I would recommend it, especially as its free and open source too.

 

Your views on this topic are really interesting..

 

notepad++ , it's free and it's the best thing you can use so there's really no point in paying, you can make a donation to the team if you like

 

Whose views?

 

there are many open source html editors are available. google "open source html editors"

 

Thanks for providing the list of HTML editors.
Was looking for something in replacement for HTML-Kit
HTML-Kit doesn't allow amendments directly in the preview screen (which directly writes to the underlying HTML). NVU does a better job in that (on my first experience with it).

 

Just try to ageBreeze Freeware, its also a very good or free html editor.

 

I have not read anyone mentioning Kompozer. It is a good free software. But it depends on what you what to do as far as a web page is concerned. If you are Newbie and all you want to do is Squeeze Page, or an non-complex web page, I will go for Kompozer.

 

I agree.

And I did mention Kompozer:

 

Personally I'd stump up the cash and buy Dreamweaver, it's the best . Nothing compares and you'll save so much time it'll be worth it..

I would say if you do have the cash, use dream weaver. Its more than worth the money in the end.

 

If you're on a Mac, I strongly suggest Panic! Coda. It's simply the best I've ever used although it comes at a small price. Uncluttered, great UI, and very easy to use.

 

Notepad is 100% free (if you have windows) it is in my mind the best html editor. Dreamweaver is a wysiwyg tool i.e it writes its' own code and you just drag and drop etc. Although it does have a 'code' tab it isn't really a HTML editor.

 

I have heard of using Notepad as a html editor. Do you have a place I can get instructions or step-by-step as to how to do this?

I am interested.

Thanks,
Matthew

 

Notepad++ my favourite. But for the learning stage I would suggest CoffeeCup, its free and does the job
