couple of ideas to help make PP easier Can't Post

I will say first off that page publisher is really excellent. I had to basically teach myself HTML coding when I first started using it, and now I understand it pretty decent (although i'm still making mistakes) - While working with it though, I have made some major mistakes and I have just 2 suggestions for how you could help the noobies (like me) avoid making major mistakes -

A preview page button/link would be nice - I have had to change the HTML code several times, but when you don't REALLY know what you are doing, it's very easy to make a mistake - It would be nice if I could see exactly what my HTML fix did before it auto-published it - Like a simple "preview this page" instead of view page -

Also, I know it's easy to cancel your work in HTML - But when you've done 4 new table entries and inserted 2 links, it's too easy to make 1 tiny mistake in coding - a simple "UNDO" button would be helpful in these situations...

Take this for what it is - just a suggestion from a HTML noobie - A month ago all I knew were colors and fonts - I designed my entire website by teaching myself along the way (none of it using HTML, just Yahoo sitebuilder) so for the experts, these would be useless....but for me, and i'm guessing other avg. HTML users, these things would make it a bit simpler - the biggest thing would be that I wouldn't destroy my page because I accidentally deleted on <div> tag (like i did the other night - took me an hour to figure it out)

anyway, thanks for the excellent product - It really is useful once it's setup - I just thought these might help noob's like me -
