Check out the J2EE version of Eclipse. It has a drag and drop HTML editor.
It is pretty lightweight.

http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technology/epp/downloads/release/europa/winter/eclipse-jee-europa-winter-linux-gtk.tar.gz

I use it for the XML utilities vs. the HTML utilities so I can't say whether
it works good or not (the XML utilities work good)

My daughter let me install Ubuntu on her Toshiba laptop. Before she
takes it with her to college next fall I'd like to assess whether to
switch from Windows to Linux on my next development laptop.

I currently use Dreamweaver as my editor for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
files, but I've begun downloading and testing various Linux based
editors in my spare time.

So far, an editor named Screem looks like the best choice.
Interestingly, it doesn't have a WYSIWYG design surface, but I really
like the auto-complete popups when keying tag names, attributes, and
events associated with HTML and CSS elements. And closing tags are
automatically inserted. Colors are helpful. And there are a lot of
other features to assist those of us who haven't memorized everything
that browsers do.

Are there other HTML editors I should be looking at? What about
Eclipse? Or, an Eclipse plugin? I don't plan on doing any Java
development. The Toshiba has only 768kb of ram. Would that be a
deterant to evaluating Eclipse?
