Re: Easy-to-use (author in) XHTML tool sought
I'm trying to see if there is a tool out there that will automatically
create valid XHTML. At the company where I am curretnly contracting, the
Help system (for a web application) is XML driven, with the content in valid
XHTML. The twist is that we actually create all the content after the
starting <body> tag and before the ending </body> tag. (In other words, if
we create HTML files in "standard" tools, we comment out the starting HTML
and head content and the end </body> and </html> tags.)
I've been searching for WYSIWYG tools that create valid XHTML without much
success. Even Dreamweaver 4, which I live for most web work, won't do XHTML.
We end up doing most of our work in HomeSite.
You are looking for the wrong tool set. What I hear you asking for is a tool set to create valid XML files.
Try the suite of tools produced by Xtensibility (http://www.xtensibility.com). Another tool to look at is Morphon by Morphon Technologies (http://www.morphon.com). It is a Java based XML authoring tool as well.
