IMHO HTML itself SUCKS big time! It is very limited and inflexible as far as formatting is concerned. I believe that every serious writer HATES HTML because of its very serious shortcomings, and as far as I am concerned they can't come up with an improved replacement for it soon enough! I have used Frontpage, Word, OOo Writer, and NVU, and Writer is by far the best except for its inability to accurately show how formatting will apear in the actual HTML as displayed by a browser. What I hate about NVU is its lack of an undo function. That and the knowledge that NVU will never get any better. I tried to do a short textbook in HTML a couple of years ago, and had to give up and do it in PDF because of HTML's severe limitations. Perhaps Writer was never intended to be an HTML editor, but as far as I am concerned it is still the best one I have found so far. With just a few minor improvements in the WYSIWYG area it would be by far the best. There is also the fact that writers get so comfortable with Writer that doing HTML with it rather than having to switch to some other program would be far easier.
