That is exactly why I have a prejudice against "html editors." No doubt
when used properly they are fine, but I do think people tend to use them
as a substitute for understanding what the tool is doing. I'd be
interested to know the percentage of FrontPage users who actually are
capable of writing 'hello world' in HTML.
I should probably play with the 'nvu' editor we saw a link for just to try
to get a more balanced view.
Here is a MS-Windows html editor which at least doesn't hide the details
