I am editing a local copy of a HTML document having links to
local text

documents and external WEB pages.
Without leaving the editor I wish to:
1. view the linked document.
2. optionally save a local copy of external document
indicating when
and from
where retrieved.
3. optionally do cut-n-paste from the linked document.
SeaMonkey's Composer is unsuitable as it cannot open a linked
document.
As my subject line hints, lack of graphics would be a plus.
It would be convenient is if some links were not visually distinct
unless cursor was hovering their. I would also like to be able
to edit
the text displayed when hovering.
The end use would serve some function similar to a note taking app
and/or a personal wiki. I've looked a Tomboy Notes an found it
unsuitable. I'm not familiar with wiki creation software.
Comments? Ideas? Pointers?
Thank you.
When I am editing Web pages I view the page using in a browser.
The page is on a local server. I open the source in a text
editor, EditPad Pro. I make changes, save the file, and refresh
the browser to see the changes.
The server I am running is WAMP on Windows. Since the pages are
being viewed as though they were online all links work.
No thanks. The first paragraph of http://www.editpadpro.com/edithtml.html
explicitly states it does not meet my requirements. It costs more and does
less than SeaMonkey's Composer.
SeaMonkey's Composer is broken and no longer being worked on. It is a
WYSIWYG product that produces uncompliant HTML code.
Try running your pages through:
<http://validator.w3.org/>
EditPad Pro is a text editor that includes context specific
formatting/highlighting for a variety of file types including HTML, PHP,
etc.
If you don't know enough about HTML to write a Web page in a text editor
you can still use the process I described.
Edit using Composer. Save the file. Toggle to your browser's view of
the page and refresh.
However, when using a WYSIWYG product like Composer don't rest assured
that just because you like what you see on your system in your browser
means that anyone else will see the same thing.
