Open Elements

I am starting to enjoy the Linux side of computing, I can browse the web, check e-mail and perform a few other tasks, but when it comes down to it, I still depend on my laptop that runs Windows XP, for mission critical work, such as editing web pages with Dreamweaver, building rich animations with Flash and manipulating images with Photoshop and Illustrator. These are the industry standards where I come from.

I’ve used these windows applications for years and have grown accustomed to them. I know them well enough to know that they are part of my comfort zone. If I were asked to do a web job, I know that I can pull it off. All I need is my laptop.

The Challenge:

I know the open source community has just as many quality tools, if not more than Microsoft and Adobe put together. With that said; I’m on the hunt for an open source, standards compliant HTML and script editor with a rich GUI. Something like Dreamweaver… is that even possible?
