I personally LOVE Nvu, but there is a fork of it called Kompozer (http://kompozer.net/). It is meant as a series of bug fixes to Nvu as it appears that Nvu development has stagnated a bit. Nvu is sponsored by Linspire so you may find more information or alternative downloads at their site. I have found the pages Nvu develops work great in Firefox but tend to look crappy in IE...go figure! But...I also found it flexible enough to work around those IE issues. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
