It has a free version (BBEdit Lite) and a commercial version (BBEdit). 
It is a non-WYSIWYG editor, and IMHO there is nothing else that matches 
it on any platform.  To help out web page creation, it has:

  * syntax coloring and navigation-by-headings in the document
  * context-sensitive tag editing commands, including a form inteface
    for all of the tag attributes
  * file inclusion and placeholder options (for putting a framework on
    a collection of pages)
  * document syntax checking based on the W3C standards
  * spelling checker that is aware of HTML tagging
  * page editing via FTP to a server
