I'm really doubting if a server side WYSIWYG webdesign system is
possible. By its nature a website is a quite statical thing and it's
surely not intended to be used as dynamic WYSIWYG environment[1]. Use
Java for that purpose, I'd say.




Best regards,
 Gabriel

[1] Well PERHAPS some ugly hacks of resizeable/moveable layers in
conjuction with massive Javascript would result in a kinda like
WYSIWYG system but overall, I don't even the like that idea.
