web publishing software

Hello!

I am looking for a simple web publishing program. OpenOffice can convert its files into HTML format, but it uses a whole bunch of font tags and other annoyances that don't make the HTML files that complete.

Any other suggestions would be great!

Thanks,
Murdock

LyX -> export as Latex -> latex2html.

It's not great, but it works. Latex2html is not developed any more, and there are a few things which don't work properly, but at least you can do the whole process programatically.

Quanta perhaps?

Give nvu a try:

vi to edit pages, ftp to publish them

I'd have to vote for NVU. I create and maintain a couple websites, and NVU is the best app I've found. I was doing it with MS Frontpage when I used Windows, but now that I'm 100% GNU/Linux, NVU is my app of choice. Moreover, it's a much better application than MS FP ever was.

By the way, a cheap and quickie way is to use the Nandu Firefox extension. However, it's not a full-fledged app.

Luck!

I have been using Bluefish. I find that I am much more "in touch" with what is happening when I use an HTML editor and NOT a "WYSIWYG" editor such as Nvu.
