Great addition to KompoZer 0.8b3 I hope to see more of: a split-screen view of code and HTML. Its a terrific way to see what's going on behind the scenes of the code that you're working on, why individual code bits are acting up, as well as learning more HTML functions by letting KompoZer show you how its done. Another program on the site Web Design Toy does this as well, although to a much lesser extent and really in one direction: code -> preview.

This is not yet available in KompoZer Portable (v. 0.7.10) because I think its alpha/beta stage, but I hope it will be a feature in all WYSIWYG editors. Anyway, very happy to see some activity on the KompoZer project.

More on this feature and some other recent changes.

KompoZer is another long-dead app. It died in March of 2010 and there's no indication that anyone will pick it up or fork it at the moment.

Yup all the files in the zip are from 2009. BlueGriffon seems to be the only free wysiwyg editor out there at present but then I don't use them so couldn't say for sure.

Yes use of the term "recent changes" and "some activity" was inaccurate. Evidently much of my post was wishful thinking. Even dead, I still use KompoZer frequently and BlueGriffon, while cool in many areas, is not yet a replacement.

Surprising to no one, Dreamweaver CS5 has this feature. It may have been present for a long time but I don't remember seeing it back when it was Macromedia.

Alleycode had this feature many many years ago but is not wysiwyg but is now dead. TopStyle has always had it as far as I am aware but is not free.
