Does anyone know of a wysiwyg application for taking notes, preferably in a tree structure, which loads from and saves to HTML directly?

Take a look at TiddlyWiki:
TiddlyWiki is a single html file which has all the characteristics of a wiki - including all of the content, the functionality (including editing, saving, tagging and searching) and the style sheet. Because it's a single file, it's very portable - you can email it, put it on a web server or share it via a USB stick.

Perhaps Google Docs might suit you, it can be used offline if needed.

Are you asking for an editor to embed into your Web page, or to use as a desktop tool?
If it's the latter, I'd suggest picking the tool you are most comfortable with. I'm a big fan of TiddlyWiki, but you may wish to have something that runs as a native app instead. Almost all the current note taking and mind mapping programs out there have an HTML export option (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_notetaking_software). And if all you need is a basic bullet list, there are plenty of good HTML editors like Amaya, CoffeeCup and BlueFish.
On the other hand, if what you are after is a way to take notes directly on a web page or web application, the editor component I'd recommend is TinyMCE. There was a recent review of the top 25 editors on Smashing Magazine, check it out for a good overview.
