I just ditched it. Try hand-coding something in the Source view. Most of 
the time you'll lose your edit when you change to normal or preview 
modes. This is mentioned on their support forums along with (if I read 
correctly) the rather troubling note that NVU is no longer being 
developed ... although a fork  of the code is apparently due out 'any 
day now'.

NVU does not provide a way to view the page in a real browser, either.

As Queen Elizabeth might say: "We are not amused."

Sorry ... but I've been fighting with this for well over a month, trying 
to figure out what the magic whammy was that permitted me to keep the 
edits once in a while.

Two days ago I spent at least two hours trying to get it to accept some 
public domain PHP coding for a simple menu.

Yesterday I switched to CuteHTML Pro 6 and so far, only good.
