I tried it a while back.  Decent program but since it was missing any kind of site management (as Turtle mentioned) and a few other things, I did not think it was a good fit for most CSB users so did not give it an assigned board on the forum.

What do you mean by "site management?"

It does not manage the files.
As in if you want to delete a page or image,
 you have to use an ftp program.

Hey Turtle, Can you check out where you found that info?  Tried to look at the user guide and link does not work at this point...maybe site is down?

hey!!
Thanks for the link to the nvu help site.
WOW it does a lot more then I knew about.
Kinda cool. As much as like CSB it doesn't have CSS, which looks more stuff I need to learn about.

Thank You Again,
Pat Jr.

NVU has been impoved a bit and is now know as Kompozer

http://www.kompozer.net/

here is their forum
http://wysifauthoring.informe.com/index.php

I have been trying to work with it for a a week or so now. Not to "automatic" for anything so for me it's all up hill but I do seem to be learning about the code behind the pages. I still have to figure out how to make site navigaion work easily. CSB sure made that EASY EASY EASY.

Best of Luck,
Pat Jr
