So i've been trying for days to get a better wysiwig editor. Kompozer is great, but it adds redundant code like <br/> to every line in a css menu that i've added (after switching from source view to normal view), and to certain other sections of code as well.

I've tried SeaMonkey, but I don't remember why I uninstalled it. Coffeecup Visual Designer only works with VSU files. Trellian wouldn't let me evaluate the program since it asked for a registration key at startup. I tried various others, and they just aren't good enough, or they are buggy.

I don't know that any really good ones exist, simply because most of the simple/popular stuff like photo albums, blogs, etc are all already covered by cheap, hosted solutions. And anyone who actually does this stuff seriously outgrows a WYSIWYG editor very quickly, especially once server side scripting and JavaScript come into play. It ends up being better and quicker to just keep a browser window open to a local web server to refresh and using a text editor like gvim, Notepad++, etc to do the actual design.

Form my experience, you should edit everything in html because editors are messing up everything.
