Re: I love/hate FrontPage - need another HTML editor.

A sincere "thank you" to James ;) I completely agree. I thought about saying something but I'm so sick of the editor wars I decided not to... --Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: "James McLaughlin" <james@webphonic.net> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, January 16, 2001 10:53 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] I love/hate FrontPage - need another HTML editor. Having used both FrontPage and Dreamweaver in the past I have resorted back to a text editor. Not that either was bad or good. Just found that I had the best control when doing the writing myself. I currently use EditPlus2 for text editing. It has everything I need and cost very little. I use it for PERL, PHP, JavaScript, Java and even mySQL. It allows you to format your own syntax highlighting and templates. But no matter what you use, it's my belief that you must know how to code by hand if your going to get anywhere. All the slamming people do around here about one editor (or platform) vs. another is kind-a childish. Would anyone dog Rasmus Lerdorf if he used FrontPage or Larry Wall if he used a windows platform instead of a *nix. I don't think so. This guys got the respect they have not by what they used but what they developed. (Not that I know what they used and personally don't care) So my point, if you made it this far, is use what's best for you and try different things till your satisfied. Someone has already explain how to get FrontPage to work so I'll leave it at that. James
