I am planning on downloading your product for my new home computer.
I am interested in developing web pages and have told I need a
decent text editor. I currently use Notepad. Does your product
have anything comparable?

OpenOffice.org has a word processor (Write) which will create web
pages (HTML). While these pages can be viewed by most browsers, the
html source code for the pages are not completely compliant with the
W3C (world wide web consortium) standards for web pages.
At www.mozilla.org, you can download a compete browser/email
client called Seamonkey. It has a Composer application which will
create web pages that are usually compliant. Furthermore, it is easy
to switch between the html code and what the page looks like.
If you are going to create web pages, you might want to go to
www.w3c.org for information. There are many resources available to
you at that site. One download could be very useful: css2.pdf. To
find it, go to the W3C web site and enter the file name in the Google
Search box on the home page.

Dan's recommendations are excellent, however if you want or need to edit
the html with a text editor, then I recommend Notepad++
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm . It is an open source
replacement for notepad with a lot of features for programmers. The
prime one in my opinion is "syntax highlighting" and formatting.
Additionally using Mozilla Firefox with the "Web Developer" and "Html
Validator" extensions makes "getting it right" a lot easier.
