I don't understand why you need to edit the files.

Ultimately the .html pages end up in web browsers, the server is just a temporary storage. Any modern browser should render the markup similarly to Dreamweaver.

Konqueror (KDE), Internet Explorer (Win), Mozilla (All) all render more or less the same.

There are plenty of editors but I honestly cannot think of any which could be considered better, at least not without knowing what exactly Dreamweaver is doing that has to be avoided.

If you said that a specific element keeps getting messed up then that's an issue that can be tackled, but the current situation sounds too vague to me. Sorry

It's possibly the CR/LR (Carriage Return / Line Feed, aka \n\r, aka #13#10) thing, quite possibly.

IS the source double-line spaced, or not line-spaced at all when viewing on different platforms (in editors, not browsers)?

If so, try using an editor which lets you save as "unix" format (to remove double line-spacing), or as "ms-dos" or "windows" format, to stop no line-spacing.

Hope that makes sense ;o)
