Eric,

Don't take offense at my post, my aim was only to help someone in need of a 
simple WYSIWYG solution (as I erroneously thought, with the 'mom & pop' 
mention).

I was just passing along my experience : as a web developer, I use Perl or PHP 
scripts to generate HTML. I use an editor only for quick & dirty jobs or for 
prototyping. Recently, I had to build a table prototype. Instead of using 
Dreamweaver, I've investigated Linux tools. My first try has been Quanta. You 
are guessing the conclusion : impossible to fill a table with content (see my 
unanswered post about it). So I tried Nvu, and I filled my table in 10 
minutes.

That said, I've full respect for your work and I can perceive the difference 
between the two products.

Finally, talking about standards, best practices, and the like, I remember my 
first PC programming efforts to avoid writing into the video RAM, only using 
the ANSI.SYS driver. You know what became the standard. OK, that's nothing to 
do with our subject, just a reminder that standards change and efficiency has 
its importance.

Sorry again for the trouble.

André
