Does anyone know of any good, free WYSIWYG editors?
Not ones that have free trials, or put "Made with ______" on all the pages, either.

Thanks :)

Well....

It's not Microsoft Dreamweafer.It's Macromedia Dreamweaver or Microsoft Office Frontpage.Nvu is good and it's "FREEWARE" not trial.

Nvu is good but it makes a strange mess of all the codes and can get complicated to look at the source code afterwards.

I also have heard reports from one user that it crashes randomly, but I don't know if thats true or how severe it is. I have yet to find a properly good WYSIWYG editor. Microsoft ones (Front Page, Word, Publisher) would be alright but their code is terribly messy and often the pages will only work in Internet Explorer.

I think I would say that OpenOffice is about the best that I've seen.

Nvu is really complicated.

Try BlueVoda. Its really easy.

It gives you a space and you can put any field(html field, SWF field) anywhere. LITERALY!
You can resize to any size. Even the size of the whole webpage.

I forgot the dowload link but you can search it on Google.
Its free anywayz!

Do not use anything from microsoft because it will mess you code co badly that even you with the programy you made it with can not edit it and lets say for 3 lines of dreamweaver code there are about 5 lines in frontpage.

Thats how Microsoft is???wow.

I said before in this post that BlueVoda is good.
But I reccomend using Dreamweaver. It is also a WYSIWYG editor.
