HTML Notepad, a HTML hacking application for WWW pages containing just about everything.

'Think HTML, think Notepad, think HTML Notepad' - with apologies to the Fast Show

Prologue

imagine if you will a world where people like HTML tags, where the WYSIWYG WWW creators put in
tags that will not be seen in another browser without asking or telling you. imagine instead a
technique we call html hacking where you can get your hands dirty by putting the tags in yourself
where you can debug javascript and which has all those horrible tags formatted in a nice way.
now imagine this tool *not* being written in Visual Basic and *not* requiring 15 Mb RAM to run. 
 imagine a tool which people actually use, talk about and find their comments acted upon.  

still reading, hi,welcome to html notepad. an english computer program in an american world. 
we hope you like it.
