I've never really been that into using HTML codes for many things. I've noticed that if you get even one letter or number wrong, or the sign you are using is backwards, then the entire code is changed. Your font has somehow changed to Wingdings or some other equally confusing picture language and the cute photo of the puppy has turned into a picture of Al Pacino. You then have to spend more time looking through the code and fixing what you can in some vain hope that when you click "preview page" or "save page" that everything is back to normal.
But with WYSIWYG (fun new anagram), what you see is what you get...literally. It is easier to program, and you know exactly what is happening on the page you are trying to design. By being able to actually see what you're doing allows the creator to take more innovative liberties. There is no guessing or praying that the code
has the right amount of letter:number ratio.
While HTML was a great source in the past, WYSIWYG and others like it, are definitely the new future program devices.
