For the love of Claris!

I second that. I've been screaming for Apple to replace Claris Homepage for many years now. It's almost criminal that they've never filled that void when OS X came out. No one else has managed to build a reasonable, stable WYSIWYG HTML editor for the rest of us. Contribute is unreliable and pricey for what it sometimes manages to do, and GoLive & Dreamweaver are not for the short of time and patience. and then all of the code-only software doesn't make for a everyday user web page builder. And sorry, as much as they love to claim it, Freeway ain't that easy, and ain't that WYSIWYG. Netscape & Mozilla... they seem to work fairly simply, but a brand new user to OS X... you're gonna tell them that, no sorry, the simple, easy-to-use Mac doesn't have an equivalent to Front Page... but you could always download a bloated browser and use the "module"? I think not. Fill the void, Apple!

NVU

wow!! NVU is great! It seems to make really clean good simple html. I did the usual dumb test, just download (drag-install) and start typing text... its preview tab shows nicely formatted output and the html tab shows the html.

It's still a beta, but a real company ( http://www.linspire.com ) is helping to pay for it so the April deadline is probably real. (linspire does a nice-interface-linux; but not available on mac hardware)
