I was using Frontpage 2003 for sometime. I installed 2007 and now can't find it.
Is there any free HTML editor and view a page like frontpage?
Thanks.

This has been well thrashed here before. I commend the forum search to you. But since I am feeling kind, you might want to look at HTML Kit (http://www.htmlkit.com/). Anything will be better than FP - but what ever you use, make sure you know enough HTML and CSS to tidy up code, then check your output with the w3c validator.

I second that. HTML Kit is good.

I always recommend Open Source editors for a couple of reasons...
there will always be developer/community support
open source projects are usually kept up to date
if there is something you want changed in the program - you can change it
there aren't licensing restrictions (you don't need to look for pirated copies)
Mozilla SeaMonkey (http://www.seamonkey-project.org/) is rather good and there is a Windows version of Kompozer (http://kompozer.net/). The next version of SeaMonkey will be using a lot of the code from Kompozer.
Probably the best open source web dev project is Quanta + (http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/) - 'nix only.

You can use notepad++ i's free !! (it's not a visual editor)
If you work with the editor daily i'll suggest buying dreamweaver.
it's a little pricy but it will save lot of time and frustration.
Dreamweaver also can generate valid xhtml code.
