I can't afford Front Page. I have had nothing but trouble with
Composer.
Any recommendations, please?

Try nvu, http://nvu.com. It is free. Note, however, that it is now
version 1.0, and has both limitations and bugs.

Nvu 1.0: http://www.nvu.com/
There are newsgroups for help, assistance, bug reports/enhancements.
Nvu
- is highly web standards compliant,
- is free,
- is open source,
- is community-driven, is user need driven
- is multi-platform (Windows, Linux, Mac),
- is available in many languages (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese,
Russian, German, etc.),
- has an User Guide in 3 languages (2 of them in the process of being
translated),
- allows support for 4 DTDs (HTML 4.01 strict, XHTML 1.0 transitional,
XHTML 1.0 strict)
- has a built-in CSS editor
- is being improved in all sorts of areas
- etc.
Nvu won't do magics, Nvu won't make you create professional web sites
(you would need web authoring knowledge, experience, reading books,
etc.), Nvu is not a web Aladdin lamp, Nvu is not perfect either but...
it certainly costs less than DreamWeaver 8 ($399.US), Nvu is already
better than a lot of HTML editors (like FrontPage 2000).
There.

Well, that's not working so well. See
http://home-1.tiscali.nl/~knmg0017/nvu_test.htm , wich was written
with nvu 1.0, and validate the source
(http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhome-1.tiscali.nl%2F%7Eknmg0017%2Fnvu_test.htm&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&verbose=1)
I set nvu to
-use strict html 4.01
-use css style instead of html attributes
Still it produces a wrong doctype declaration and wrong attributtes
that are even non-existing in html 4.01 transitional
(align="undefined"), let alone the strict dtd.
That being said, I still think it's one of the better free editors if
you insist on (pseudo-)WYSIWYG.

I think you copied the source code of an existing webpage. I can not
reproduce the page you created. align="undefined": how did you create
this? I have no idea. If you can tell me how you created such code, then
I would file a bugreport on this.
Can you post an message in the nvu mailing list for this?
