atw: Re: Free / open-source / shareware / really cheap webpage and website editor [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

I 've been using HTML-Kit, which you can download free from 
http://www.chami.com/html-kit/, for years.  It's an HTML editor, not a 
WYSIWIG editor, so you'd only use it if you prefer to code your own 
webpages in 'raw' HTML (as you'd obviously have to with Notepad). However, 
unlike Notepad++, it's designed specifically for editing HTML and related 
pages (XHTML, CSS, PHP and JavaScript, etc), so contains many aids to help 
you get the syntax right, as well as colour coding (Notepad++ supports 
other languages too, which could be a benefit, but also means less 
specific help for the languages you need for webpages). And you can also 
easily upload files to the server by drag and drop.

From time to time, I've experimented with other editors, but have always 
come back to HTML-Kit. There are tools you can buy too, which give you 
extra  but I haven't tried them.

One freebie you can avoid is BlueVoda.  It seems to good to be true and
it is.  Fully functioned with all sorts of wysiwyg buttons, etc. you can
drop in but you can't (a) edit raw code, and (b) save an XHTML file
locally -- only a strange *.bvf type which contains all your precious
content in some sort of binary format.  However, you can upload your
page/site to the Voda Site Hosting Service just like that.  How nice of
them!

So, can anyone recommend a free or inexpensive webpage and website
editor/manager somewhat more advanced than Notepad?

Regards,
Hedley
