Hi :) I think the coding is to be published in a book / manual / guide. Perhaps teaching people the basics or giving appropriate examples. I think Ian was looking for some method to use coding in a document in much the same way that Math is used to write equations for documents so that the equation can be seen. We have been trying to push him into using the equivalent of Calc to give the correct answer when he's really looking for something to show the equation in all it's intriguing beauty. Bluefish is often recommended and i gather it's a bit like Dreamweaver in having a wysiwyg alongside a coding window/pane. I only had a brief go at both those but they made me feel really uncomfortable. Real world web-browsers have their own quirks and i'm not sure how faithfully a wysiwyg editor reproduces their errors. So, i tend to have at least 1 web-browser open to see the real-world effect of code that i write (well, mostly copy&paste & modify tbh) in a text-editor. It's interesting to see this thread has forked in 2 directions. There are these sorts of answers on how to write good, reliable code to be used directly and the other fork is about how to make it look pretty for print.

Now with more complex pages, it can be very hard to keep one edited without using a WYSIWYG editor. Yes, I use text editors for some things, but there are a lot of things that need the editing while viewing the page, and not just the code.

Yet, for some work I need a WYSIWYG editor for the look and feel of the web document. I use Kate [Ubuntu based Linux Mint] for the text editor. I use it for the Find/Replace option to change 91 links from [say] "4.3.3.2_" to "4.3.4.1_". That takes too much time in a WYSIWYG editor, or at least the ones I have used. Currently I use Kompozer, but when I upgrade from Mint 16 to 17 [14.04 based] and beyond, the graphical display methods do not like the upgraded version that Ubuntu 14.04/14.10 now uses. So I will be looking for a different DEDICATED web page editor. Yes, Writer can do the HTML editing, but I would prefer a WYSIWYG editor that was created specifically for web page editing and hopefully with error checking options.I haven't followed the thread with great care so I may have overlooked a reference to 'bluefish'. <http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/features.html> I haven't used it in quite a spell so this isn't a 'recommendation', just a reference to a tool which might be of use. it is not, I think, wysiwyg as such but it will open your browser for inspection of results. (looking at the website it seems it may open your page within bluefish but I'm skimming too fast to be sure.) see what you think. (apologies if this has already been considered.)

The document already exists - so I'm selecting 'File Open', I change the File Type to 'HTML Document (Writer)' and select my file. It then opens in "view" mode - So how do I get to the code to edit it??I just tried it again, and I think I see your problem. I did exactly as you did, and the "HTML source" option did not appear on the View menu. I think the problem is that, when opening the file, you are changing the File Type to "HTML Document (Writer)." When you do that, all you get is a WYSIWYG display along with no HTML source option. So, I tried it again, but instead of changing the file type to "HTML Document (Writer)" I kept it at "All types." Then when I opened an HTML file, I saw the source code instead of the WYSIWYG display. Not sure if this is intended behavior or a bug. (All this said, I agree with Tom that I would use a regular text editor to edit HTML code. Gedit works nicely on my Ubuntu machine.)

I have read about, and looked-up, the possibility of editing HTML documents in Writer but can not get it to work!!
