Re: PHP Editor - which to use?

me? groan? never! :) Really I think most of agree that its a personal preference if you learned one way then you going to be the most comfortable in using that style. I am very used to C style coding and therefore am more comfortable using that.

Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2003 10:34:33 -0400 FYI- New to this list but have been a php coder for 2 years. I know a lot of you out there are going to groan inwardly, but I use Dreamweaver, mainly because that's what I used since it's inception when I was writing static sites. I use OSX for my writing platform and occasionally use BBedit as well. If someone could point out a better PHP editor for the Mac, please speak up:) BTW- Dreamweaver has pretty decent PHP highlighting. I started out as a pure designer but got into the web and have since been a moderate code writer, so cut me some slack if my methods are not standard;) Whether or not it is proper form, I use the following format: if($conditional) {

    some code;

} else {

    if($subconditional)
    {
        subsome code;
    }
    else
    {
        subsome alternate code;
    }

*COUGH* *COUGH* EVERY REAL coder knows that you have to use the following brace style for your code to be accepted into the l33t hierarchy of h@ck3rz: if( $pos_params != false ) {

    $back_url = substr( $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'], 0, $pos_params );

    $back_url_params =
        substr( $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'], $pos_params + 1 );

} else {

    $back_url = $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'];
    $back_url_params = '';

}

cat | realprogrammer if( $pos_params != false ) { $back_url = substr( $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'], 0, $pos_params ); $back_url_params =

    substr( $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'], $pos_params + 1 );

} else { $back_url = $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin']; $back_url_params = ''; } cat | realprogrammer | in_a_rush if($p) { $bu = substr( $_GET['o'], 0, $p ); $bup = substr( $_GET['o'], ++$p ); } else { $bu = $_GET['o']; $bup = ''; } :) Curt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
