Re: Looking for Ubuntu HTML Editor

["Aaron Bartell" <aaronbartell@xxxxxxxxx>]

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)

HTH,
