Re: PHP Editor - which to use?

I think that is the one thing that really gets me, and therefore is the reason that I stay away from Dreamweaver (my wife uses it, so its in the house) but I have to tweak the code it gives me or she gives me when something isnt working, and its always something odd or many things odd in the HTML or php. But again thats just me.

Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2003 13:04:45 -0400 Thanks:) I'll give BBedit a go for a week and let you know how it turns out. Yes, Dreamweaver does sucketh much, but it's great for hashing out the page (WYSIWYG style) then tweeking the code. I Hate (capital H) hand typing nested tables.* :P *<high school memory>Hwat the hell do I need typing for, I'm going to be an illustrator!</high school memory> THE best text/code editor in this planet is BBEdit. No questions about it. It is a pitty it only runs on Macs. I have used it to write text, code fortran, pascal, c, c++, html, css and php (among others). It is great, I love it. Kudos to Bare Bones! Great find/replace utility. Incredible adaptation to your needs. Owesome syntax coloring. Terminal included. FTP, mail, telnet, terminal, macro, perl included. Try it, now!

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.
