Free Simple HTML Editor Recommendation

by Kenneth Holland
16 replies
Hi All,

I'm looking for a simple, free and easy to use HTML editor. I run Win 7. I would just be using it to edit a daily HTML email....nothing fancy.

I was using an old version of Dreamweaver, but it throws errors that I don't have enough memory (I have 8 Gigs!)...so I don't know what that's about.

Thanks in advance.

Ken

    Kenneth,

    You could just use notepad++ if all you are doing is editing HTML. Also, Microsoft Visual web developer is a decent one (although more advanced than just a text editor).

    Notepad++ Home

    Hope that helps,

    Shawn

    Web Dwarf is free and really simple to use. I use that and WYSIWYG Website Builder (paid, but a fully functional trial).

    Kompozer gets my vote. If you're good at Dreamweaver, then Kompozer will be a breeze.

    If you do it daily, you might also consider hiring a programmer to setup an easy process for you that is easily repeatable. They could probably setup up something that uses TinyMCE for example. This is what I did.

      If you repeat the same format every day, this would be the way to go. Even simpler than using something like TinyMCE would be to set up a form on a web page, then use a form handler to insert that content into a template.

      Another option is using Open Office Writer. Write and format your email, then save as a web page. Copy/paste the code into your email program. Again, you could set up a template and just fill in the content.

    For text Notepad ++, is fast, accurate and has some nice features.

    For simple HTML (web) pages little beats Komposer for simplicity imo. :-)

      I second Notepad++

      You can use regular old Notepad that comes with every windows pc...but if you want a bit more oomph, notepad++ has some bells and whistles that come in handy. Plus you can use it for other languages besides HTML (I use it to code PHP too).
