Which is the best HTML editor ::
I personally use ,
Frontpage
Yahoo site builder
Easy web editor ..
Which soft U use ??
vim <3
You only need a text-editor which has syntax highlight.
For WYSIWYG editing, i prefer Dreamweaver 8.
Otherwise i use Notepad, WordPad, and Notepad ++.
I'm not coding inclined, so i will have to second the Dreamweaver recommendation... I find it very useful, as well as using Photoshop, and then slicing your page and importing into dreamweaver. Found it pretty flawless. Mind you, i'm far from professional... But nonetheless a very easy workflow, and rather intuitive

Dreamweaver CS3 is defintley the best script editor well if your typing the page from script any way. Its easy to use and your able to preview the page in a web browser though thats if you write the page.Though it costs a lot of money so i just stick to notepad. Though if you can afford it Dreamweaver is the way to go.
I prefer to use HTML Kit, rather than Frontpage or Dreamweaver. It's a step above a basic text editor, colour-coding various parts of the HTML code and allowing basic error checking.
I think best WYSIWYG is Dreamweaver but WYSIWYG really sux, You`ll never learn HTML this way.
Try co learn commands and write plain code at Editplus 2 without auto preview etc.

You don't need syntax highlight.
But it's nice if an editor has it. Just like it's nice for an HTML editor to have builtin FTP support, utilities for color-picking, converting between ASCII, HTML entities, hex, It's also nice if it has an HTML-aware spelling checker, builtin support for HTML tidy, code folding, project management, etc.
notepad++ i what i always use.
Has all i need.
Line numbers + syntax highlighting

i started with FRONTPAGE, moved to Dreamweaver and during this i learnt HTML. Infact dreamweaver taught me HTML.
No matter what WYSIWYG editor you use, it's always good to know how to hand-code too.

Congratulations, admittance is the first step to recovery.
I'm sorry. I'm just teasing.
Really though. If you are serious about learning HTML and web design, stay away from Frontpage.........far, far away. It does nothing but insert useless Microsoft garbage into your code. As a matter of fact, Microsoft stopped supporting it about 2 years ago.
Like a couple of people here already said, use a text editor to learn the basics, there are no less than 62,249,023 out there on the web (just Google "text editor" or "HTML Editor") and you can spend a week checking out programs. I do second the advice for HTML Kit. It's a bit bloated and intimidating at first, but is incredibly useful. But you have thousands top choose from. Notepad++ is very popular too.

Syntax highlight is have-to, when you code something big, for example, with php. You can easily see if the quotation fails or you haven't commented something which should be. Vim also has automatic indention and good code is indented
It will also show, which notation is for which, when you have lots of { or ( -marks.
PSPad for coding and Frontpage for layout stuff. I tried Dreamweaver but din't like it.
phpDesigner2008.
Has syntax highlighting, numbered lines, and highlights the error that you may have in PHP, if you code in PHP. It's great!
Ok, here's a full list of programs I use for HTML codding...
Windows:
good ol' fashion Notepad
Dreamweaver 8
Notepad2
Maguma OpenStudio
Linux:
Quanta Plus
JPico
mcedit (midnight commander editor)
Emacs
vi
kedit
Bluefish
NVU
Note that Linux has more options from which you can choose...
notepad++.
I use NP++ and Dreamweaver, i like DW, but its poor in the programming side, NP++ is good in programing and "htmling"...
Im trying to test aptana, but i have little time for testing =/ , if aptana works as good as np++ to htmling i'll change to it...
i never used dreamweaver due to its cost, but i use wordpad for quick editing html/PHP files, and php Designer for editing HTML/CSS/PHP, etc...
php Desginer is a little bulky but i like it because i think its real handy...
Notepad++ is excellent and supports loads of languages!
strange that everybody is talking about frontpage or dreamwaver...
those programs are not oke.. they put a lot of html in ure code where u dont want it.
i use eclipes right now (jea it normaly for java) but it has all i need
nice colors for {} en () and it can track down both with a highlight
for the rest i use mine own head and for me thats the best way to program
KDE desktop
use KOPETE! its the best. i haven't had problems so far..
I use Arachnophilia and it seems to do the job. I wouldnt call it the best editor but at least it has syntax highlighting. I am poor so I really cant afford something like Dreamweever. I have tried other editors but I cant get the results I want.

That's very true
I use notepad++ and sometimes html-kit. Notepad++ is a great all around editor but html-kit has some extras that make it a little better for html.
Okey i dont use a htmleditor but i dont do that much html jobs but if EditPlus2 counts then i use a html editor 
only the Frontpage2003 its very nice
i use >> "scite text editor"
this editor supports many programing language not only HTML.
and simple!! light moving!! easy configuration!!
but its minor editor for others?
What Not To Use:
Frontpage
Any WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) Editor (frontpage included...)
Some of my favorites:
Notepad ++ (All around easy to use and fast to load)
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/
phpDesigner (Geared towards php programmers, but still very usefull)
http://www.mpsoftware.dk/phpdesigner.php
PS Pad (Completely free and very fast... Confusing at times though)
http://www.pspad.com/
My #1 Favorite So Far:
E Text-editor (It's only $30 and has tons of features) (Think TextMate for Windows)
http://e-texteditor.com/
TextMate (Original Mac Version, still the best text editor ever!)
http://macromates.com/
I use Dreamweaver and Microsoft FrontPage. Frontpage is little bit savage for java and other new codes. There I use Dreamweaver.. But in dreamweaver you cant move objects freely as Frontpage so there I use Frontpage.
I think Frontpage and Dreamveawer are enough to design a website. Of course you will need programs like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Fireworks and Adobe Flash. What I use beside these, Swishmax and sometimes MS Visual Basic Studio.
Hi,
I think that is Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 
I'm only using Coda, did use Smultron for a while, but Coda i way better imo.
Myself, I like to use Notepad++. I must confess though, that I haven't tryed any other text editor, except wordpad that is.
Hi
I use uDoPage...
It names files automatically
Names Pics automatically.
Links automatically.
Oh and yes.. I wrote it myself lol
Cheers Possum..
Coffecup HTML Editor, you can get it at www.coffecup.com.
it really rocks and it comes wiht alot of stuff included like scripts

Thank you all for the information. I have been trying Notepad++ and like it. I will probably try some other suggestions as well.
Dreamweaver or notepad. I've been using them for years. I generally use what's available on the computer that I've been using.
Any html editor that does not add fluff and colour-code the markup is a decent one. If it can autocomplete (though its not really necessary for HTML), but its an asset for sure.
If you want to use editor with helping features, you should use NVU or Quanta Plus. NVU is for popular operating systems, but Quanta Plus is only for linux. I have heard that few guys have at first moved into linux operating system because of Quanta Plus.
undoubtedly phpDesigner 2008 for me...
PSpad. It has syntax hilighting for a bunch of languages, and it can edit hex!
I use Notepad++, an excellent free tool, with colour coding which can be configured, plus it has extensions. You can also open files up in a browser direct from a menu item.
I use TopStyle Lite for CSS editing.
I also have Dreamweaver CS3, which is excellent. And for .NET stuff I also have Microsoft's Visual Web Developer Express 2008
I prefer dreamweaver.
I usually edit in code view and then flick to design view to see how it looks. I used to use frontpage but its just too IE specific and just creates more work.
I've used Microsoft Expression Web and that was terrible.
As I am usually running Linux, I keep it simple: gedit, emacs or (especially) Kate which basically are are all text editors with syntax highlighting for most languages (HTML, XML, JS, PHP, ...). FrontPage, Dreamweaver et.al. have some comforts but: (a) they often produce very verbose HTML, (b) they tempt you do it "quick and dirty" when you should be doing "short and neat", (c) their previews don't help much since you have to check your pages against a number of browsers, versions and platforms anyway and (d) items such as checking HTML strict, syntax errors or accessability are best done online in my opinion. If the need arises, I do use Quanta+ (or KDevelop for scripting).
If you know code programming use Notepad++ , if not i think than Macromedia Dreamweaver is the solution. You can work with code, design or both interfaces.
I personally use Dreamweaver CS3 and you can do some stuff in visual basic and c++ but its pretty pointless alson notepad is usefull!
There are a few free ones out there as well
Dreamweaver. Got it, it rules. Cant think of anything better.
If your looking for Free Drag and drop, get Blue Voda.
Thats cool too
I use textmate on a mac. Out of curiosity I've tried other editors like Bbedit and Coda, but always end up back with my trusty TextMate. I would recommend it if you're on a mac.
Well if it's pure coding then I just usually use old fashioned Notepad or Wordpad, lol.
For coding purposes, Notepad++
For WYSIWIG it's between Dreamweaver CS3 and MS Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition
