Which is reasonable

That's what webbrowsers are for. Alt-Tab, F5.

can anyone recommend a good simple program for writing and editing html

JEdit, Emacs, GVim, NotepadPlus, TextWrangler, Komodo...

You can do that easily enough with your browser and switch back and forth to
view the results. Most of those editors that have "preview" features aren't
doing much more than this.

A good text editor with syntax highlighting, the ability to store code
snippets and some sort of macro / programming capability will make things
way easier for you.

Google for:
Notetab Plus (I use. Notetab Lite is free, has everything as Plus except
for syntax hightlighting)
PSPad (Freeware)
Alleycode (Freeware)
HTMLKit (Freeware I think)

I could put that list on the web. But this way looks more impressive
then on a web page. )
