Like all other WYSIWYG editor, it's dead. But if you want to make quick paragraphs, lists, tables and then grab the generated code, this application helps you.

I would amend that to say FREE WYSIWYG editors. There are actually some really great paid ones out there, and they are doing quite well. In fact, I think WYSIWYG editors are having a bit of a resurgence.

@gacott can you make a recommendation for a decent paid option that doesn't mangle pasted HTML too horribly?

dead thread but for those who still wander: I, with zero irony, has made use of Microsoft Frontpage 2003. Use whichever ones make the comfiest site in the comfiest way, if looking through the .htm files is of no interest. Only reason I'm looking at Bluegriffon today is because I was wondering how to better make some of the more playful sites in the mid-2000's.

Updates are optional. Use Amaya, use Frontpage 2003, Seamonkey, KompoZer, whatever gets you what you need.

I have tested a lot of wysiwyg editor. I think the most flexible and easiest would be the coffee cup html editor. But other alternatives can be Ambiera Rocket Cake or wysiwygwebbuilder.com
