I need an HTML editor

Hi,

I need an HTML editor, preferably with WYSIWIG editing that will allow
me to make changes to a template, and have whatever changes I make to
the template roll through all the pages on the hard drive. (Or the
pages I want, anyway.)

For example, if I want to change the links at the top of my home page,
I shouldn't have to go through all of the pages and change the links
at the top of every one.

I'm aware of "server side includes", but I can't find anything that
will "include" changes to the files on my local computer.

Any recommendations to an HTML editor would be appreciated!

Other needs: if possible, I'd like to keep the cost down to under a
couple hundred, I'm reasonably familiar with HTML, just OK with CSS,
but I really just want to put up a simple website without having to go
through a big learning curve.

Thanks!

Mike

CSS + SSI

SSI is still your friend. Install a scripting language on your system,
like PHP, and install a web server on your system as well. The include
for PHP is really simple:

I suggest a plain text editor, especially if you are doing anything
server side, like includes. Plain text editors also usually don't mess
with your markup the way that WYSIWYMGs do.

There are plenty of free editors out there. I like HTML-Kit
plus TopStyle for CSS
. There is a free version that
integrates with HTML-Kit, and a lot of other editors as well.
