I am going to de-recormend NetObjects, I personally think it is one of the worst HTML editors I have ever seen. You can't go wrong with Dreamweaver, Namo Web Editor or even FrontPage.

I've used Mozilla Composer, but I'm more of a straight-to-the-code kind of guy. I use Vim. [vim.org]

However, if you truly need a WYSIWYG editor then I recommend Dreamweaver MX 2004. [macromedia.com] The web guys at our firm use it with some degree of success, and they don't have very many complaints.

By the way, we develop internally for Gecko (the Mozilla browser and Mozilla Firefox rendering engine), and Dreamweaver MX 2004 supposedly makes this very easy with standards compliance right out-of-the-box. Of course, that's just what the web guys tell me.

A lot of people have suggested Dreamweaver, but personally I dont like it that much. Its good in some aspects, like the half html half wysiwyg window, but I find the program annoying in other areas. Like how it will it auto resize tables on you without even you knowing until its too late and your whole layout is shot T_T.... thats why I went back to notepad.

who cares if it has bloated code?  iit's not written for performance like a browser or something

Well, there are many of us out there who don't want to write bloated, proprietary microsoft type code. Front Page 2003 was altered because of the massive outcry from developers who said they did not want it either. Microsoft listened and Front Page 2003 as a result produces much cleaner code. Happy ending, all the way around. :)

If you have lots of visitors and use up lots of bandwidth, the cleaner and more efficient the code, the less you will have to pay for bandwidth.

    • Oh, what if the AI skips over some "editor's" personally cherished lie in an article? The Horror!

    • Wikipedia suffers backlash from human editors over AI summaries, prompting feature pause by David Uzondu Wikipedia editors have pushed back against plans from the Wikimedia Foundation to test AI-generated article summaries, powered by Aya, the open-weight AI model from Cohere. The non-profit has now paused the project. The decision came after a swift and overwhelmingly negative reaction from its community. As first reported by 404Media, the plan involved a two-week, opt-in trial on the mobile version of Wikipedia. But the volunteer editors who build the encyclopedia met the idea with immediate and fierce opposition. The project's discussion page became a torrent of rejection. It included simple comments like "Yuck" and blunt declarations like "strongest possible oppose" and "Absolutely not." One editor argued that a test would cause "immediate and irreversible harm to our readers and to our reputation as a decently trustworthy and serious source." They noted that Wikipedia has built its name on being sober and reliable, not flashy. Another feared it would destroy the site's collaborative model. They argued that while the "collective mass" of human editors "evens out into a beautiful corpus," the AI would install "one singular editor with known reliability and NPOV [neutral point-of-view] issues" at the very top of an article. That same editor also noted the following: For context, this is what AI-generated summaries on the platform was supposed to look like: Image: 404Media It is not hard to see why they are so protective. The editors' fears are grounded in recent and very public failures of AI features from tech giants. For example, Google's AI overviews recently hit 1.5 billion monthly users. The feature became a laughingstock for telling people to put glue on their pizza and that a dog had played in the NBA. This is the kind of humiliating error Wikipedia's community is desperate to avoid, as it would undermine two-plus decades of careful work. We also saw the potential for reputational damage back in January. That was when Apple's AI feature falsely generated a notification claiming that Luigi Mangione had died by suicide. The man was actually alive and in custody. On the site's technical discussion page earlier today, Marshall Miller (MMiller), a Senior Director at the Wikimedia Foundation, posted an update acknowledging the feedback. He admitted, "It's clear we could have done a better job introducing this idea," and confirmed the experiment was paused. The Foundation says the goal was to explore accessibility for different readers. While this specific test is off the table, the organization still wants to use new technologies. Miller ended with a promise: "We do not have any plans for bringing a summary feature to the wikis without editor involvement." A WMF spokesperson also told 404Media that though the feature has been paused, the foundation is still interested in AI-generated summaries. The spokesperson insisted the goal was to eventually build moderation systems where "humans remain central" and called this kind of backlash feedback part of what makes Wikipedia a "truly collaborative platform."
    • I see, yeah that makes sense. I have been in situations where I barely did not crush badly on the road due to other driver starting to change lanes into another car - freaked out last second and avoided it by crashing into the side of the bridge instead. i got away because I quickly changed lanes 2 times in a couple of second and unlike that idiot I did not lose control big part of this was my car was good 😊 (audi a7) vs the old van the crashed driver was driving would AI be able to react and quickly change lanes twice both time barely avoiding collision … I don’t know my car systems pumped the breaks and tried to warn me with a beep and vibration but if I slammed the breaks the car behind me would hit me then again I have BMW driver training and a good car - so I have no idea how robot taxi would react i am not sure extreme fast lane changes would be programmed in - it is dangerous as hell unless you are FULLY aware, and have done it before but it is a general risk to do it especially in the conditions with bad weather and when you are not driving a sports car with 4 wheel drive and very good control
