Dreamweaver is probably the best one. There are other's, but it's the only one I've used.

Notepad man.  Actually in Windows I use pspad, I've never trusted the output from any WYSIWYG editor.

You can't really rely on the output of a WYSIWYG too much. Best to check it in an actual browser periodically.

^^ this

No matter how well you program or think you program you have to test it in the actual browser.  Javascript libraries like jQuery and Dojo will reduce javascript issues.  CSS though is its own mess with browsers typically creating their own extensions (i.e. -moz-...) or in IE (i.e. <!-[if ie7 leq ...) hacks.

You can usually trust a WYSIWYG editor for macro things, but you'll need to know how to edit the markup manually for all these special cases.

And with HTML 5 gain popularity you can rest assured that editors will have bugs or create incompatible markup until things stabilize.

thanks all~ i have been a little overwhelmed by dreamweaver cs3, but it is starting to make sense. someone at work saw me mucking about in it, and said i oughta do the company intranet. that's what i get . . .
i was trying to also change color schemes, ala Zimmers post in the other thread. his quote there made me lol;

but yeah, i can see why you need a personal workspace. and in my case i need to remember to close the door, so i don't get nominated to run the company website too!

Burnzz, if you want my colour scheme or a quick run through on how to change everything properly, give me a shout, either via email or xfire or PM.
