ok I just wanted to ask if there are any free html editors, other than mozilla composer available for the mac Idd be gratefull. If there is nothing free for mac than I'm willing to pay up to 30 pounds via paypal but as a starving student Idd prefer the free option.

wysiwyg is a must
linux is wayyyyy cool
windows plain sucks

TextEdit

you don't need WYSIWYG. html apps like that are overfuckingrated

real men hand code and make badass super-streamlined code that's faster than a record exec heading to the bank

How about downloading the Dreamweaver trial? You'll get to use it for thirty days--for free.

Or I got it for free with Limewire, but I'm too lazy to learn how to use it.

Oddly enough they both have the same number of validation errors. And that's for about all the HTML specifications.

well look at calumsmusic.netfirms.com compared with polytheism.org.uk or orkney.cjb.net - (and look at the html code too) ok neither is perfect but the first was done in dreamweaver and the second by hand (although i have cleaned up the former a bit by hand since then).

i recommend using a text editor. maybe emacs can be compiled with gcc on MacOSX, don't know...
if you really need wysiwyg, openoffice.org is available for MacOSX running XWindows.
how about vim:
http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/#vim
or nedit:
http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/#nedit

vim's a text based editor, i think it is colour coded text for various tags etc. nedit is a notepad like editor for XWindows (this is the MacOSX jaguar version) and i think it's colour coded too.

I've used all four of these things, but only under linux, or mswindows/caldera dr-dos, not macOSX, so your mileage may vary!  ;)

ok thanks for all of the help But I just bought a used copy of dreamweaver mx on ebay it was quite cheap at 20 pounds I instaled it and it works like one hell of a dream.

The problem now is what the fuck has happend to open office.org  you can go to their website and see that It is not the usual page.  Also another thing i'dd like to point out is that neooffice.org is working fine I downloaded the office software and I did not even have to use x11 to install it you know this is all part of a pilot scheme to have open office on the mac.

but from what I can tell open office has been srewed by some basturd ie billy boy
linux is wayyyyy cool
windows plain sucks

Looks nice, but it's a very rigid layout. Appears as a little box on high res monitors.
