How do they allow you to publish pages to their site?  If by ftp, there
are a lot of tools that can manage that.

If by webdav, then at least Quanta+ works.  Screem appears to work as
well, but I'm not as fond of the Screem interface.  I don't know if any
of the WYSIWYG page editors work with webdav.

Speaking of WYSIWYG page editors, there are at least three that I know
of.

NVU -                   see www.nvu.com
Mozilla Composer -      see www.mozilla.org
OpenOffice Writer/Web - see www.openoffice.org

That said, I don't like any of them.  In particular, the handling of
<div></div> is very poor.  At best, you'll get absolutely positioned
divisions which is a bane for liquid designs.

Also, they generate at best transitional HTML (not strict or XHTML).
The end result is sloppy (possibly non-compliant) HTML that may not work
the same in all browsers.

I alternate between Bluefish and jEdit.  Neither are WYSIWYG.  
Just my opinion . . . .
