I originally developed my website (http://www.nhoa.org.uk/) in 2007 and is often used by association members for the latest information so I need to regularly keep it up to date. I originally used Dreamweaver CS3, part of the Master Collection that I paid about £1,500 for. It recently stopped working and kept crashing for no apparent reason. The only way to cure the problem was to reinstall Windows 10 which cured lots of other problems and left me with what was effectively a new PC. Unfortunately, it was after I reinstalled the Master Collection that I discovered that Adobe had closed down their activation servers several years earlier making all disks useless. I tried contacting them but they couldn’t help and even had the cheek to try and sell me the latest version of Dreamweaver at £20 per month!
Can anybody recommend a free and simple WYSIWYG HTML editor that I can use in place of Dreamweaver please (PC or Mac) that won’t involve a steep learning curve? The HTML code is quite basic and apart from the basic editing tools in Dreamweaver the only extra features I used were switching between code view and design view (WYSIWYG) and the FTP to upload files to the server. I’ve looked at various apps but I can’t find anything equivalent with these features (Aptana wouldn’t run at all). I’m starting to think that the best option may be to edit the code using Notepad which will be a pain. Thanks. This post has been edited by Decky: Oct 9 2021, 12:08 PM |

Thanks Pandy, I do upload the files individually one after the other so maybe because they’re not uploading to the right folders atm, when I click on Publish it then reads the incomplete file from the server rather than still from the local drive. DW didn’t work like that and always showed the local version. The images on the page aren’t uploaded to the right folder either but they’re displayed ok, it’s just the background colour that disappears. Sounds like I’ll need to play around with it some more to figure it out.
