Notepad? Otherwise I don't use any of the free WYSIWYG editors because they don't properly display all the formatting. It may be different now, I haven't checked in a while.

Notepad++ 100 times better. I use it for my php too, awesome stuff that is.

Yep, but dream-weaver isn't free. I friend that is doing a web-design course says it's ok, but I've always seen it spam sloppy useless code.

All one needs for making a website is an notepad or some other text editor. The nice thing about programming is that almost everything is free.

I agree with Darkroot, and basically, dreamweaver just shows you what you code (well, at least, that is how I use it)

Notepad++ ftw!

Yeah, Notepad++ is the best option here. Since it is a beginner you want to get down to basics and just see the code. Notepad++ will highlight the tags to make it easier to understand.
