| I've recently gotten a new iMac and I'm so excited. I'm looking for a good HTML editor that is less than $100. Dreamweaver is nice but it's big and expensive. I'd love code completion, syntax highlighting, editing in code and preview if possible. I know I can't get all Dreamweaver's features in another app, but what would you suggest? I'm looking into SkEdit at the moment. It seems to have the most potential. Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks |

I've been using eclipse with webtools for Servlet/JSP stuff but it has some nice HTML functionality too. There are tons of plugins for eclipse that will extend it and allow it to help you better. IMO the built in browser kinda sucks, but who browses websites with the preview pane anyways? You should always check your pages in IE, Firefox, Safari, etc. |

| Its not cheap, but I prefer BBEdit. If they ever figure out a decent code completion system (has none currently) it'll be a no brainer.

| That's a little spendy for me mdnky but my friend swears by that too. Thanks for the suggestion. |

| BBEdit gets rave reviews from my web design buddies who eschew Dreamweaver as not a true HTMl editor, and it's only $199 or less: http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/

| If you want WYSIWYG, maybe NVU is an alternative? It's free, but somewhat limited in features. Give it a try: http://www.nvu.com/ |

| I guess I still don't understand... what makes BBEdit so special? I mean 199 dollars for a text editor special? I've used 7, maybe things have changed but I didn't think it was THAT special. |
