Hi Gardenia,
I have had the same experience using Word or WordPerfect to handcode so use
either WordPad or NotePad. NotePad has fewer steps to save than WordPad,
but I like the ability to do search and replace that WordPad offers. There
is also NoteTab Light (http://www.notetab.com/ ) which will run under
W95/W98 and is freeware. I haven't tried it yet but have been told that it
works too and that there are several manipulation tools available to make it
more powerful.
If you want to continue using Word, you'll need to designate not only the
*.htm(l) extension, but change the type of document format you are saving
your code to ASCII text (*.txt) at the time you save.
HTH,
Diane Green

Subject: Word processor
> Well, they say there's no such thing as a stupid question, so here goes:
what's the best word processor to use for HTML stuff? I'm doing my very
first project, my company's procedures manual, on my iBook using MS Word98
for Mac (it will actually be run on a Compac PC w/ Windows 98). I seem to
have nothing but headaches. I thought that HTML saved as text only would
work anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
