I need a WYSIWYG visual HTML editor that adds absolutely no extra code like Frontpage. Right now, I am using Mozilla (just Mozilla, not Firefox) and it works fine but it's sort of awkward and not very intuitive. I have to open up a page and view it since it's a browser. Then I have to use a menu item to edit it.

Are there any suggestions for a better solution?

NVU adds plenty of crap, unless they have made significant changes to it in the last couple of months.

All WYSIWYG are going to add crap you dont want. The only way to get code the way you want it is to write it yourself.

I have not yet seen a WYSIWYG html editor that does not add useless crap.

Notepad. You see HTML tags, you get 'em, and no extra crap. Guaranteed. ;)

But I'll be serious: Learning to code it is the best way to get what you want on the page.

Define 'useless crap': Remove the meta tag for author being Frontpage if you don't like that. If you mean it adds properties where all browsers inherit that default anyway, then I understand. But it's not crap if IE assumes that property as one thing and Mozilla another. That 'crap' will make your web page viewable in both browsers as intended.
