Looking for the Linux cousin of M$ Frontpage

[ixthus]

I want to avoid loading M$ front page on my XP box. What would you recommend for a Linux product on RH8.0???

I don't think there is a full front page clone avalible for Linux yet (I could be wrong though)
you may want to take a look at Ginf http://freshmeat.net/projects/ginf/?topic_id=90
from what I have read about it it is similar to frontpage express

I have been trying to find a WYSIWYG editor. I am using Quanta Plus at the moment.

first response that came to my mind after reading the thread title.

or if you want some of the technical/complicate options (Frontpage pro?) use vim.

:D

There is a pretty good HTML editor in OpenOffice.

Oh yeah forgot about that one :)

I have ark linux installed with kde desktop and it came with openoffice.org stuff. I didn't even look at them yet though. :0/

For GUI text editors i have : Quanta Plus, Vi iMproved, Kate, and KEdit.

Quanta is amazing.

Any of yall tried Websphere (http://www-132.ibm.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?lang=en_US&catalogId=-840&categoryId=2057316&cgmenbr=1&dualCurrId=73&langId=-1&cgrfnbr=2057316&y=10&x=9&cntrfnbr=1&storeId=1&cntry=840&scrfnbr=73) from IBM? According to the "ads" I've seen it is billed as a "cousin" of MS Frontpage.

Just wondering.

here is a really nice editor that isn't wysiwyg exactly but it has all of the buttons to input most of the code for you. even has javascripts for you to use. one bad point is that it is not oss.
coffeecup linux (http://www.coffeecup.com/linux/)
coffeecup other (http://www.coffeecup.com/)

i used to use it before i found linux and it was the main app that tought me html and got me started on the road to coding.

sorry, i wasn't clear enough. thank you for your responses. to be precise, a WYSIWYG is what i was hoping to be pointed towards.

i reformated the hd on the xp box and do not want to put front page back on. i flip-flop between WYSIWYG and text editing. so you all have provided me with some good options to investigate.

coffeecup is awesome, i use it for all my html need on windows.

btw, isn't netscape compser a wysiwyg html editor?

thanks for the suggestion, i have been able to pull some good information out of the tools from coffee cup.

i received a licensed version of word with my dell and it has given me a very good WYSIWYG editor for setting up my tables [only have shovel out all the extemporaneous code]. which is all i really need anyway, i like doing the rest in notepad.

thanks again
