I had recently downloaded and installed CoffeeCup HTML editor. Unfortunlatey it's not a visual editor. In the free version you can only edit the source coding and not use the WYSYWYG editor. When I go to click on the Visual Editor tab I get the error stating that it's only available in the full cersion and it gives me the option to download a free trial.I remember Sausage Software used to have a free one called HotDog. It was pretty cool. However, as with most free things, it came to and end and all they have now is a paid version.
I just started using Trellian WebPage. It's nothing fancy. I've used Dreamweaver before (really nice) however my current status doesn't warrant me paying $400. Whenever I any PHP I use Notepad++. One turnoff on Dreamweaver was that it started acting coocoo.
One example was when I would go to save a file I kept getting some javascript error. This JS error was internal from DW, not the page I was working on. THe page I was working on was strict HTML... No php, JS, DHTML, or anything. Also, the undo feature stopped working. Then when I would go to insert a bulleted list it wouldn't work. That is, I click on bullleted list icon but nothing would happen.
I guess for now I will stick to Trellian. I don't need anything fancy. I just need something to be able to quickly type and format my thoughts.
I used to be a realy big fan of 1stPage by Evrsoft. After awaiting about six years for a new version it was a complete disappointment. Firstly is they started charging for it and I didn't see any improvements to warrant it.
The program would take forever to load up and had a frequency to lock up in the middle of working on coding. I remember people on the Evrsoft forums saying how wonderful it was and they would be willing to pay for the new version when it came out. Well, once it came out and it was so buggy the attitude changed quickly.
