WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors are HTML editors that attempt to display the Web page as it will show on the browser. They are visual editors, and you don't maniulate the code directly. Some HTML WYSIWYG editors also include a text editor, while others are purely WYSIWYG. This is my list of the best HTML WYSIWYG editors for Windows.
41. Website X5 Compact
Website X5 Compact is a less expensive version of Website X5 Evolution. It offers the same WYSIWYG functionality, with no access to the HTML code. One feature missing that I was surprised at was tables - you need to purchase Evolution to get table support. The documentation states that it will deliver XHTML 1.0 strict Web sites using CSS. This looks like a decent product for small businesses and individuals who don't have time to learn HTML or CSS.42. HotDog PageWiz
HotDog PageWiz is a slimmed down WYSIWYG editor with text editor support. It is designed to grow with you as you learn to build Web pages. As you feel more comfortable, you can enable more features and flexibility.43. Angel Writer
Angel Writer is not really a Web editor, it's an RTF text editor that can save documents as HTML. It doesn't write valid XHTML and it adds a lot of attributes and tags that have been replaced by style sheets. It did put some styles in, but not where I expected it to. If you're looking for a free Web page editor, there are many others that offer better functionality. For example, when you save a document as HTML it puts the file name and path in as the title - and I couldn't figure out how to change it in the program. This is a fine text editor, but not a great Web editor.44. eWebEditPro+XML
eWebEditPro+XML offers the same benefits as eWebEditPro only it's for XML editing rather than HTML or Web pages specifically. This is a browser-based XML editor that edits the XML files on the server.45. Web Weaver EZ Plus
Web Weaver EZ Plus offers an inexpensive solution to WYSIWYG HTML editing. It doesn't have a lot of features, but if you don't need a lot then that is fine. You should download the free version first to make sure this is what you want. It's available from the same Web page.46. HotDog Junior
HotDog Junior is a Web page builder for kids. It is not intended to be used to edit existing pages, but it allows kids to create and upload a Web page from scratch. It's not a good tool for any type of professional development work, but if your kids are asking to put up a page, this could work as a starter kit for them.47. Web Weaver EZ
Web Weaver EZ is a very limited free version of the inexpensive Web Weaver EZ Plus. If you're thinking about getting EZ Plus, then download this first to try it out. If you like it, you should consider spending the ~$15 for the upgrade, so that you can get features like tables, forms and JavaScript.What is your favorite HTML editor? Write a review!
