Never used Webuilder - should I?

 

 

If you're willing to pay for a better working environment, I think i'd probably give Coda a whirl (seeing as you're on Coda). Webuilder is great - it's just a more fully featured editor, with database browsing, FTP access, folder browser, project management and code snippets/library all under one roof. The only bug is that it's clipboard manager appears to break copy and paste outside of the program (i.e: the windows clipboard gets stuck sometimes).

 

In my extensive research of about 20 programs, they all had some of these features, but none of them had them all at the same time. Ergo: Webuilder.

I used to use notepad++ but have now moved onto komodo edit,

i really like komodo and recommend it to everyone that asks, am tempted to go for the IDE version but for now Edit does the job.

I use NotePad++, but if someone can give me a good reason to purchase a license for Webuilder, I think I'll go for that..

Coda, great program, incorporates a lot of features in a lightweight package. going to give esspresso a try soon out of curiosity.

Currently im using Webuilder 9.2. All i can say is that its a great editor, you wont regreat if u download one

Textmate (mac). Looking at alternatives though, considering Coda.

Zend Studio is really good for PHP and also handles HTML and CSS pretty well

Using Notepad++ at the moment, and have been for a while, does everything I need :-)

I have expression studio but I only actually use expression web, infact I uninstalled all the other stuff. It is a fantastic html editor but really poor wysiwyg application (but then I am yet to see a great one). I never took to any of the other applications in the studio though. Probably because I have used corel draw for many, many years and it just remains my graphics editor of choice. Expression Web 2 offers everything you could need in an html editor, including great support of php.

As I said in my last post, Coda is my fave editor, but I have been trying out Macrabbits Espresso and I acctualy prefer it to Coda, its very similar but has a few more useful additions, very good editor that I recommend to mac users looking for an alternative to Coda and DW.

I've been using Dreamweaver for ages now and I'm very happy with it. Notepad++ is also pretty cool, I have it installed but rarey use it ;)

I mainly use SciTE, with a bit of Dreamweaver when I feel like it.

NotePad ++ for basic html editor

Dreamweaver for advanced :)

 

Exactly the same for me :)

 

Notepad++ is a great little program for many programming languages

coda but very curious about espresso - if it had collab mode like coda i would switch straight away i think.

I use TSW Webcoder at home. It's not that expensive and it has a lot of good features is easy to use and great to create little bits with.

 

I have used dreamweaver but didn't like it too much, I found that when I changed parts of the page it didn't always remove the coding from behind the pages.

 

At work I just use basic Notepad.

My current favourite is E - TextEditor.

but I also have Notepad++ installed (my predecessor to E) but that will soon be deleted.

 

The only gripes I have with E are the web preview uses IE8 (as far as I can tell) and there is no option that I have found yet that allows me to format my code.

 

I also have Dreamweaver CS4 for the odd occasion where I steal compressed CSS and need to format it... Really should find something better.

You can use notepad++ excellent find and replace function to easily reformat minified css into easily readable code :)

 

Just find and replace

 

; with ;\r

 

then

 

} with \r}\r

 

i think that's all you need to do, just off the top of my head so it might be slightly off, but should give you this kind of format

 

.class{

#id{
