JohnCP Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Hi, Just wondering if there's a good IDE out there (besides Textpad) that'll recognize HTML, javascript, ASP, or PHP....trying to figure out which would be best..Also, not sure if anyone uses Eclipse, but does eclipse recognize any of the above? Thanks in advance, JP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronthenoob Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I'm using eclipse in order to learn Java. I'm not looking at it right now, but I'm pretty sure you can choose different syntax highlighting depending on wich language you select.I really like programmers notepad a lot. Its a fairly small download, and all of your functions and things can be collapsed. And the syntax highlighting is great.http://www.pnotepad.org/download/Heres a screenshot. You can see the - in the boxes, you can click those and collapse your statements.and the dropdown box that says Perl in it, has about 30 or so different choices for highlighting.http://www.pnotepad.org/wp-content/uploads...6/03/pnperl.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for the help...JP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronthenoob Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Dreamweaver is fine, but its rather expensive.Programmers notepad also has a projects window pane you can enable. It shows you the folders list and files of what you are working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronthenoob Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Yes :)In programmers notepad, I usually set the master to hypertext.If i program in javascript, the background changes to blueIf i program in PHP, the background changes to pink.Html is white.It also changes the syntax highlighting!

boen_robot Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Just look at this topic. It's filled with lots of editors, or "IDE"s if you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
