Free Webpage Editor

I'm looking for a open source or otherwise free webpage editing software for Macs. I don't need anything as fancy as Dreamweaver, something like Netscape Composer would be fine (if it still exists). I just don't want to keep having to use MS Word. It outputs the crappiest html code I've ever had the misfortune of laying eyes upon. Besides, it uses stupid symbols for bullet points and quotation marks that then don't display properly when I upload my syllabus to Blackboard.

Internets, help me!

Sorry, no help here. I hand code everything in vi.

Got zero experience with Mac HTML editors. I'll ask a couple of my friends on Monday, though.

PageSpinner looks promising.

For now I'm going with Sea Monkey, the apparent successor to Mozilla. It's nice and simple, and that's all I need right now.

BBedit is supreme. I love it.

do you want wysiwyg? another option is to use something like webby, that will let you define pages using simple text with a wikipedia-like markup, and spit out html with a consistent look and feel.
