Amaya - WYSIWYG

[James McDonald]

Just been having a look at amaya the w3c.org WYSIWYG web editor.

I have been using NVU but the project seems to have done one release in
June 05 and no more updates or bugfixes since.

Amaya is interesting it has some very cool view capabilities.

I selected view structure and then click on say a `p'  element then all
the sub-attributes are available in a list in a pane on the left of the
window. Say you want to remove the msoNormal class applied to an element
e.g. <p class="msoNormal"> you just select the p element in the structure
view and then uncheck the class check box... and it's no longer there...
Lovely.

If you select an item on the webpage you are editing then Style ==> Show
applied style it comes up with a list of all the associated css entries
and their location. A simple double click takes you to the spot in the css
file so you can then change/edit it.

Now I'm just hoping that it doesn't core dump or exit too often and I may
be using it as my WYSIWYG html editor of choice.
