===GNU Emacs===

Is there any reason not to include GNU Emacs here? It is not WYSIWG but it has many functions useful for HTML editing (for example nXhtml) --[[User:Nopedia|Nopedia]] ([[User talk:Nopedia|talk]]) 20:49, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

:::Seems to be '''POV''' to have a thing for excluding [[GNU emacs]]. This was in the version of this article merely half a year ago. ''The title of this current article does not delineate or exclude certain kinds of HTML editors. Whether it is or isn't WYSIWYG is immaterial.[[User:Dogru144|Dogru144]] ([[User talk:Dogru144|talk]]) 02:00, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

If you want to include general text editor that have extensions to support html editing, put it in a separate section with at least a few others -- notepad++ I think has html extensions, as well as vim, my mind goes blank here...but I really would rather see ones who's main focus is on web development (HTML,CSS, JS, etc) in their own collection and have text editors with support in another. But latex has a gui...can't remember the name, but it looks like it would have an html output and would be more likely to have WYSIWYG features than vim, emacs, etc. I'm not sure if it belongs here, and I wouldn't know where to put it. Anyway -- I got led here searching for editor like NVU and komposer and the ilk. I certainly don't see gnu or vim in the same category.

== Preview Pane ==

There should be a column for whether or not the editor has a preview pane. To users of front page or other legacy editors this is a important feature. Though personally i prefer [[VIM]]. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/216.99.65.8|216.99.65.8]] ([[User talk:216.99.65.8|talk]]) 11:43, 5 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I agree. The key comparison here is the convenience of being able to preview your work quickly and without back-and-forthing with your web browser. In some cases, like Dreamweaver starting sometime before CS5.5, it works in "real time" (but not really). I propose that this replaces the "page preview" column since, while both have the same result in mind (previewing your content), a button that opens the current file in a web browser is not only practically a standard in HTML editors, but also child's play in coding terms. Any further opinions? [[User:StigmaOfTruth|StigmaOfTruth]] ([[User talk:StigmaOfTruth|talk]]) 18:27, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

== Opera Dragonfly? ==

I don't think it's an HTML editor? It's more of a web inspector/debugger like Firebug and Safari's Web Inspector? [[User:Ufopedia|Ufopedia]] ([[User talk:Ufopedia|talk]]) 04:19, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

:At that moment you're right. But it is an alpha and they plan to expand the tool with many more features (some hints are already given on the dragonfly page!) <small style="font:bold 12px Courier New;display:inline;border:#009 1px dashed;padding:1px 6px 2px 7px;white-space:nowrap">[[User:Mabdul|<fontspan colorstyle="color:#000;">mabdul</fontspan>]] [[User talk:Mabdul|0=*]]</small> 15:44, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

: I'd be surprised if that's the definition - the table includes TIFF, which isn't normally used on the WWW, so why would any HTML editors generate image files in this format? -- [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] ([[User talk:Smjg|talk]]) 14:55, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

I noticed it still said that OpenOffice.org was by Sun Microsystems. Shouldn't that be changed to Oracle? Bradj47 02:48, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

:although oracle bought sun, the application is still known as OOo --> see [http://www.openoffice.org/ here]. At the moment at least.

== HTMLPen.com ==

I am using HTMLPen.com heavily very recently because of it'sits convenience. I was looking for other editors and felt like I should add it although I did not know Wikipedia rules for talks. So should it be added? Can open edit save html files. It has code completion and code aware coloring. So to me it is a powerful html editor. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/98.180.145.21|98.180.145.21]] ([[User talk:98.180.145.21#top|talk]]) 05:24, 4 April 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Light purple for not active and accessibility ==

The General Information section says "''Systems listed on a light purple background are no longer in active development.''" I can barely tell the difference between the two types of entry in that column. Some are in light purple and some others in a very slightly different light purple. I see NVU is in the very slightly darker light purple and I know that is not in active development, so I think it is the darker light purple for not active development.

I think we need to be highlighting the inactive products in a different way. [[User:SandJ-on-WP|SandJ-on-WP]] ([[User talk:SandJ-on-WP|talk]]) 08:56, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
