Hello all,

I generally suggest that our web authors use Homesite if they need to edit 
HTML docs for our site.  However, our systems folk have started to have 
great difficulty getting Homesite to play nice on a relatively battened 
down network of multi-user NT machines.  (Licenses for all, but no admin 
privileges for the users...)  Have any of you experienced any problems with 
this and been able to get it working?  (The Allaire support site makes it 
look like this is a remote possibility, but it is worth asking anyway.)

If not, any suggestions for non-Dreamweaver/Frontpage/GoLive level HTML 
editors?  The pages that are being edited are not complex, but we are 
hoping to provide something above a text editor with no HTML savvy... I 
have been using Homesite since its first versions and haven't had any cause 
to switch.  I know about HotMetal, TextPad, and UltraEdit.  If you know of 
others and would like to suggest them, please post.

Many Thanks,
