Client-side or server-side?
The former is unlikely to work, since *everything* can be messed up with
user input then. Server-side you would at least need a simple CMS of
sorts and an integrated 'rich text editing' script (google: designmode,
htmlarea). (E.g. with the basic PHP XML/expat functions you could
fairly trivially ensure well-formed input, content model restrictions
etc, and output an xml backend and an html frontend then. That's fairly
bullet-proof. Other languages have similar or better options.)

If it has to be client side, and if the user is unexperienced with HTML
but fairly tech-savvy, the by far best editor I know is not any WYSIWYG
but Emacs with nxml mode, which provides real time schema validation
(that would obviously require xhtml syntax) as you (stop to) type and
marks input errors on spot. Should be sufficient for editing textual
content.
