If you want a free WYSIWYG html editor, Mozilla composer is the best deal in town. For web browsing I prefer Camino (basically a Cocoa mozilla-based browser) and Safari. But there is nothing wrong with Mozilla as a browser. To invoke the composer function from the command line, I use this shell script:

Still the best deal in town for composing HTML - Phil St. Romain
You should check out Nvu -- a much better free wyzywyg editor.Wednesday, August 03 2005 @ 11:10 AM PDT

Yes...I use Nvu. You're right -- it contains features not found in Composer. That's understandable; one of the principal vectors behind Composer's development -- Daniel Glazman -- is heading up Nvu's development team. However, I use Composer because Mozilla is already my default browser and mail app, and I like the tight integration of the Moz Suite. That takes nothing away from Nvu, which is clearly the development path that inherited the Composer legacy.Thursday, September 22 2005 @ 01:40 AM PDT

That shell script has some spelling mistakes though, and I don't just mean comments and variables; it's looking for "Mozzila.app" instead of "Mozilla.app".Wednesday, September 21 2005 @ 07:23 PM PDT

Yup...I agree that Composer is just plain awesome. I just used it to build an entire website in two days, and it's a fully W3C standards-compliant site. I like the handy "Validate HTML" item under the Tools menu. Better still, there's a great Tidy HTML extension by Marc Gueury that integrates nicely Composer and the Mozilla browser. It's the fastest way I know to clean up my code...and it works with Composer in the 1.8 trunk too (Seamonkey 1.0).Reply to This
