Any editors that can switch rendering engines for preview panes?

I use text/html editors (maybe that's my problem), and I have never come across an editor that will allow you to use a different rendering engine from your PC to preview your code in a browser. If you have FF or Opera downloaded, it doesn't seem like too much to ask to have your editor utilize that engine instead of IE's Trident. Anyone know of such an editor?

Could try the older arachnophilia 4, I use it and you can have various browsers to preview with....

Frontpage lets you pick the browser and resolution and, if you choose Preview in Multiple Browsers, opens the page in all on your browser list at once.

Arachnophilia 4 is an html editor, not WYSISYG.
Allows up to 6 different browsers and you can create your own commands and toolbars.
Plus, it is 'CareWare' :)

Ah, my apologies tbear, I skimmed over your original suggestion.

Thanks, i'll take a look at it
