Hi
As dorayme has suggested TextWrangler is free and very good for editing
HTML.
You can get it here:
<http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/index.shtml>
A cheap HTML editor, that I've never used personally, but has many fans
is Page Spinner which comes from here:
<http://www.optima-system.com/pagespinner/>
Your experience with TextEdit is not unsurprising because the name
suggests rather that it will behave as you thought it would, open the
HTML file showing the mark up. I think TextEdit is an oddly named
application but it is very useful indeed for other things. If you
explore it a bit you'll find it is a surprisingly capable word
processor with quite good table creating capabilities and the like.
However, I think you'll find TextWrangler behaves as you anticipated
TextEdit was going to.
Best of luck with the Mac. I think once you get the hang of it you'll
find you really like it.
