Free and Opensourse Alternative to DreamWeaver

I designed my very first web page on the DreamWeaver and have been trapped in the DreamWeaver world ever since. I have tried other web authoring tools, but none seem to have the same designer friendly functions as DreamWeaver. I’m glad that there is finally an opensourse alternative to DreamWeaver with many of the same advanced functions. I haven’t tried it yet, but would be interested to hear your comments. I may introduce it in teaching next year.

Nvu (pronounced N-view)

Finally! A complete Web Authoring System for Linux desktop users as well as Microsoft Windows and Macintosh users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver. Nvu (which stands for “new view”) makes managing a web site a snap. Now anyone can create web pages and manage a website with no technical expertise or knowledge of HTML (link) Thanks to Sean H for this link.

    It has one niggling feature… No matter how much you try to turn this feature off (and it may have been rectified by now) it will alter your pristine HTML code in a format it chooses. Although I do less and less hand-coding, that which I do do I will use a text editor… and not just any text editor either. Notepad2 is an excellent alternative to the standard windoze notepad.
