What do you recommend as a good, practical WYSIWYG editor
for creating simple web pages, with mostly text, some
graphics and pdf, for debian Lenny please? Thanks.
This may be a bit [OT] since I don't have any WYSIWYG web page editor to
recommend, but ...
Actually WYSIWYG is VERY BAD for web page creation. People can resize their
windows etc - and then what? All your WYSIWYG has gone to waste. In addition
your WYSIWYG is probably not even rendering the same as your favorite browsers.
As annoying as it may be at the start, the best way is probably to edit with a text editor and have
a browser (or several browsers) rendering the file. You will find that for the most part you don't
waste time looking at the browser window - you just put in all the appropriate markup and
information and then much later you look at the browser and go "I didn't mean for it to look
quite like that" and make a few adjustments. Keep in mind that unless you use "style
sheets" (in which case you're trying to force a certain look on your visitors), HTML was
really only meant to provide the content and it was really up to the end user to play around with
the browser to control the final look. Ultimately it is impossible to ensure a document looks good
in all circumstances but it takes some effort to make a good page look bad.
