    you can just use something like MS word which has a basic one, or the covers of magazines like .net offer free ones that are a few months old.

    Mozilla do a product called Composer for free. Probably worth checking out in your position.

    Have a look at www.NVU.com

    It's open source (free) and fairly easy to work with.

    Stay the hell away from Word!
    A simple file with "Hello World" (see attached) on the page takes 61 lines of code which fails validation (with assumed HTML 4.01 transitional doctype) [5 errors]

    I agree ^

    It is not designed for making websites. Dreamweaver isn't that hard to learn really

    Totally Agrees :D

    Dreamweaver, Frontpage (excuse while I be sick) are WYSIWYG editors - sort of...

    You could allways use Amaya, Firefox (As stated) or use notepad.
