Hi People-

This is "Wes' Woman" and he told me to post this myself rather than him doing it because he really has no idea what he'* talking about....hahahaha... but we
were wondering if anyone knew of any free HTML editors with FTP publishing? I've already tried PageBreeze and I love that one, but you have to upgrade to PRO to publish your page, so it'* kinda useless. I downloaded a trial verison of CoffeeCup, but it'* a little harder to use. If anyone has any tips it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
alison

If you can get your hands on a copy of MS Office it should have "FrontPage" on it.

I use that for a lot of my web page making.


Other than that, all I can say it that......... Google is your friend.

are you doing it the hard way (coding) or the easy way (visual designer)?

If you are on a Mac, use TacoHTML... best free HTML editor out there.

The pros tend to strongly dislike Front page due to the bloated code it creates.

Take a look at this:

frontpage sucks.

"NVU" is free and an okay editor.

nancy suggests CoffeeCup, tucows.com should have it

my suggestion: notepad and WS_FTP

I'm trying to do it the easy way. I keep trying the HTML and it'* way over my head right now. I know basic basic basic HTML, but that crap is insane once you really start getting into it.

I'll second that. NVU isn't very active, but it'* the 80% solution. It has a lot of bugs, but it'* still one of the better "pretty print yet stay true to HTML" editors out there.

Kompozer is supposed to be a "bugfix" version of NVU.

It does go overboard on the coding, but I find it easy to use, it came with Office, and it plays well with other MS products.

However I do use UltraEdit-32 for editing web pages.
