The only trouble I had with it was that you need xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.37.5.i386.rpm to get them to work. Hopefully this has been fixed in the lated update of Kompozer. Overall, it isn't bad, but it doesn't handle frames too well. One can't, or I can't figure out how to, view tha main frame set in Kompozer. This is really only a problem on older pages because I'm too pathologically lazy to update. I really should sit down and solidify my PHP skills one of these years.
What I long for is the feature set of Quanta Plus with the user-friendliness of Kompozer. That would really be something I could sell to Dreamweaver-addicted clients. Robert Donovan -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
