I need an HTML editor

Z

Hi,

I need an HTML editor, preferably with WYSIWIG editing that will allow
me to make changes to a template, and have whatever changes I make to
the template roll through all the pages on the hard drive. (Or the
pages I want, anyway.)

For example, if I want to change the links at the top of my home page,
I shouldn't have to go through all of the pages and change the links
at the top of every one.

I'm aware of "server side includes", but I can't find anything that
will "include" changes to the files on my local computer.

Any recommendations to an HTML editor would be appreciated!

Other needs: if possible, I'd like to keep the cost down to under a
couple hundred, I'm reasonably familiar with HTML, just OK with CSS,
but I really just want to put up a simple website without having to go
through a big learning curve.

Thanks!

Mike

Mike,

You are asking for a great deal; I'm not sure there is an editor that
meets all your needs.

For what its worth, I use three different HTML editors (two of which
cope with PHP scripting quite well):

1. EditPlus - http://www.editplus.com/index.html - a plain text editor
that supports a simple "ClipText" or clip library. Clips allow you to
create your own customised code inserts. For example, double click on
my ClipText called "Underline" and EditPlus inserts:

<span class="underline">|</span>

with '|' being the insertion point (clearly I have the class 'underline'
defined in my CSS). Clip libraries save an enormous amount of time and
let you work how you like to work.

2. HTMLPad - http://www.blumentals.net/htmlpad/ - a sophisticated
HTML/CSS/PHP editor with a code editor (plain text) tab view and a
wysiwyg viewing tab. Again HTMLPad supports a clip library type
function. There are lots of 'helper' functions like linking to
documents, pages and images etc. etc. A very good piece of software.

3. Amaya - http://www.w3.org/Amaya/ - the W3C's test browser/editor. I
use Amaya like a word processor that produces *.html documents rather
than *.doc or *.rtf documents.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Peter
