Why is there no Wysiwyg kida system program alive ?

[trip]

I present this question in hopes of finding a developer.

Artists need a way to create CSS powered websites faster. And cleaner. And the buzz word that comes to mind is WYSIWYG stuff. So far the market is saturated with text editors like CSSedit or Taco, or BBdit, Hyper edit , Golive, Dreamweaver, and multudes of others. But there is only one simple accessable tool for quick easy site making for the masses called Freeway retail 100$. But the problem that lives in it is that lack of style that one gets from it. The the digs of cyber space is CSS and PHP.

And editing code is fun in its own right. But after days of tweeking code and looking at code just nails a coffin in your head at times.

So the question is. What is stopping it ? There are already great editor programs, now all that is needed is a way to visualy create and move the visual image and box data around in real time along with the code tweeking

doesn't a program like dreamweaver do what you are looking for?

Have you actually used dreamweaver... because it sounds like you have not.

I use it daily to create and manage css driven sites at work. It has both powerful coding features, and a great wysiwyg editor. In fact the beauty of DW is the split view in which i can write the code myself and see it displayed visually. OR conversely you could work in the wysiwyg and let DW update the code. (which sounds like what you're looking for).

You should try downloading the trial. Research all options before spouting off.

Yeah, I think I'm missing something here as well. Dreamweaver is a WYSIWYG editor - widely considered the gold standard of Web editors actually. But there are others as well. Heck, even the Mozilla suite comes with a workable basic WYSIWYG editor called "Composer". On the Windows side (ugh) there's also Microsoft FrontPage, which is a trifle better than Composer but nowhere near as good as Dreamweaver.

Up until the first post I'd never heard of "Freeway". But I thought everyone knew about Dreamweaver.

For the price (free) I would say that Mozilla is a great WYSIWYG editor. Sure it has it's little quirks, but it sure costs a lot less than Dream Weaver. I use Mozilla Composer at home on my Mac along with BBEdit Lite and HyperEdit. At work (Windows only ) I use Mozilla Composer and Note Pad.
