OT: html authoring software

I'm not much of a web programmer, but I do a little. I typically use the free Composer in Netscape 7.x for simple work and Adobe GoLive for somewhat less simple work.

I need something to handle frames, image maps, forms, etc. Something with wysiwyg and source view, fairly easy to use, and free if possible although I'd be willing to pay a coupla bucks for something good.

Anybody have any recommendations?

Antenna from Stormdance - Wysiwyg and is very good for making a complete site. I find it is the linking of pages that is always the killer and where all other budget softwares fall down.

Its template system of having pages layered allows very quick changes of style accross the whole website. And Justin Spencer , the author is very happy to answer questions etc and will even code in enhancements you might need. Last time i contacted him - a year or so ago - we were going to let the dust settle a bit on 3d embedded objects and then he would look at how this could be easily be embedded.

don't know about frames and maps, but there's other solutions to handle them, those 2 are quite nice free basic tools.

Jonathan,

Nice site, was the software easy to learn I intend to revamp mine at some stage? Mine was originally created by a friend in Dreamweaver but Dreamweaver seems to require way too much time to learn properly to do the most basic of things.

And why is there no Maxwell render page on your site?

Looking forward to the 22 of November.

I've had the network rendering working quite happily in Beta with 3 PC's it does pay to have PC's of roughly the same spec. Although it is possible to work with different Spec PC's and set the render to achieve a sample rate rather than time.

Haven't spent any time with Maxwell lately, I figure the standalone will with a material editor will save so much time on experimentation.

Apologies to Matt for taking this off topic post away on a tangent.

I will take you up on that offer of your website files, I'll download Antenna and work with it over Xmas.

i have used HTMLkit before, it isnt exactly wysiwyg but a good intuitive HTML editor... I personally use Dreamweaver for all of my design stuff though... If you have any questions with web design lemme know and i will see what i can do to help...

Pah!

You beat me to Nvu.

There's also Quanta+. (I think it has wysiwyg interface now.)

Atleast internal preview, but it's only for Linux I guess(?)
