Editors
Forgive me please if this is in the wrong forum, but what is your favourite editor program for HTML? I used to use FrontPage 2003 a lot (ugh) but now I use Dreamweaver for only HTML, and I use the Design portion for a few things.
I found that FrontPage 2003 screws up your HTML, and adds strange things to it, saves random files off the internet to your computer. For example, I had a picture showing the current weather from www.weathernetwork.com, and FrontPage kept saving the picture to my computer and using that version! It's also not very good on browsers other than IE... I just want to know what you guys think is the best editor. |

No editor should be allowed to write your code for you. If you can't shut that "feature" off, it belongs in the trashcan. Dreamweaver's fine for me. I don't let it write my code. It's fine if it wants to make a skeletal page but the most valuable part, to me, is syntax highlighting, code completion, stuff like that.

There's a free product called Nvu; it's what I use for HTML.

there's a nifty program on sourceforge called notepad++ that's a really simple text editor, but has syntax highlighting features for a bunch of languages from C to ASP. i think it's neat. a lot of people will say notepad or vi is the best...so this is a simple one with some very useful features.

Yes, I'm that hardcore. Or that masochistic, depending on your point of view, i suppose. |

Allow me to end 25+ years of nerd argument with this simple, undeniable mathematical equation:

when it comes to coding, we do everything the easy way, when it comes to software choices, we like to do everything the hard way... :p
