There's a really excellent text editor available at http://www.textpad.com. It supports 'syntax highlighting', which means that it can understand certain file formats and colour various words differently. The setting for HTML has the control codes and tags in different colours and quoted text in different colours, so that it's really obvious when you forget to close a quote. You can also download little 'clip libraries' of standard phrases, which in the HTML library include the standard tags. i.e., if you double-click on 'Text Link' with some highlighted text, it inserts <a href="">your highlighted text</a> and all you have to do it type in the link. There are clip libraries and syntax highlighing for all sorts of programming languages as well, and you can even roll your own. At one stage, I used to have a 'fast text file' highlighter which would let me whiz through a text file looking for my key words, which would be highlighted in red. It also allows you to search and replace over more than one file, write macros, view your files in any program (including web browsers), and a myriad of other features. It's about $30 (US bucks) if you choose to buy it, I think. I didn't, but only because I started running my own webserver under linux and I just use vi, instead. http://www.textpad.com.
