That's because the web is not paper. PDFs are a medium designed to be
printed on paper. The Web isn't. There is no useable "wysiwyg" editor
for the web because there is no one "wyg".

HTML is *not* a page description language. It is a *document*
description language and that's entirely different. More generalized.

The joke is on you because you don't understand the media. TV is not
Radio and the Web is not paper, and never will be. You are like a Radio
producer moaning that your TV programs won't work properly when you use
your well understood radio methods.
