"Is there a text editor similar to Notepad that has spell checking and
multiple undo? It was also be nice if it had a tag checker too."

Well, I wouldn't say it's "similar" to Notpad, but Homesite does offer text
editing, spell checking, multiple levels of undo, tag checking, tag
completion, and tag color-coding. I think it's probably the best text editor
out there, but I'm sure others have their favorites. Granted, Homesite is
not as small or compact as Notepad, and it's certainly not even close in
price (Notepad begin free, Homesite being NOT free, but still very
affordable), but I wouldn't code without it. Dreamweaver is a nice builder,
but I'll stick with Homesite, thank you. Macromedia did a good job of NOT
hosing Homesite when they bought Allaire last year, instead making Homesite
and Dreamweaver two very capable, complimentary methods of accomplishing
essentially the same thing, in a manner most comfortable to those who use
them.

Just my 2c...
