html-tidy will fix FrontPage mess, as well as dreamweaver and golive
mess for you, not to mention MSOrfice-as-html-editor mess.

Actually, there are a number of windows editors that you would like if
you like QuantaPlus. HotDog and HomeSite are nice commercial editors.
On the freeware front are FirstPage2000 and html-kit. TextPad can also
be used as a nice html editor. Just starting to maintain my site with
Linux tools, I was frankly surprised at how few choices there were. I
expected an abundance of Quanta-like products.
