I'm not sure about a vanilla HTML editor, but there's an HTML editor called bluefish (I've never tried it though): http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html

It is hard to beat emacs or its cousin xemacs. The learning curve is a little steep but you can start out with the basics and work your way into the rest of the features.

I use Bluefish. But it's a full-fledged HTML editor, with syntax highlighting, multiple pages open, tag library, etc.
There's also Quanta, which is similar...
In Bluefish, you can have multiple pages open as well.
Are you looking for a WYSIWYG? If so, you can take a look at Mozilla Composer.
If you want a barebones HTML editor, just go for Vi, since Emacs is foul and heinous. It takes a little bit to get used to, but it's a very powerful editor. And it has syntax highlighting for every language I've heard of, and tons that I've not.

a little update... i tried nvu and it's almost what i wanted but it hides all open docs tabs when in source view. which sucks because this is where i spend all my time. it never renders properly in html view (if your coding correctly
so that's out... i think bluefish is going to be the winner as long as it doesn't hide the tabs (who would? honestly? who throws a shoe? you fight like a woman.)

Yeah, Bluefish lines them up along the bottom.
It's a good editor.
