Well,
The problem is that the more gui the slower is the coding.

I tried screem, quanta, bluefish and one from IBM.

The point is that a beginner should understand that html is not
programming. A good beginning is to look at some tutorials for html.
I would recommend jbarta's tutorials but they don't conform to the
standards.

The amazing thing with html is how little you need to know to get the
results you need.

The issue is what tool will get you there the quickest.
Any editor that gives you a list of the tags is good.
I ended up using VIM with the xml editing extensions. But I first used
the XHTML vim.

The what you see is what you get route will only confuse you in the long
run.

The first step is a good tutorial.
