I use 1st Page and I like it.

It's friendly with four customized levels of use. You can work with a beginner's version for easy stuff or try out their hardcore mode for ASP, Web TV and all sorts of stuff. Comes with built-in Javascript and DHTML - very nice for people who know very little of either, like me.
I also like the constant preview which lets you try and do things without actually changing the file. It does have a search & replace function, but only in the particular page that you're working on. I use BK ReplaceEm for replacing strings on several files at once.

And it's free! What else can you ask for?

I also use Notepad for very short and simple pages. 2 Problems with Notepad that I have are:

1. No proper indentation mechanism.
2. It won't work with long documents.

Hands down my favourite text editor. Now in 3 flavours -- Classic, Lite and full. http://www.jgsoft.com/editpad.html is the url you need.

If I'm working on...

-perl/CGI I use NotePad
-ASP InterDev
-PHP a mix of NotePad (for quick edits) and InterDev (for it's Project Explorer and find/replace functions and 'goto line #')
-general HTML and JavaScript usually NotePad

The first editor I used was Hippie98. Had split screen code/browser. It's free. You can register it if you want (i did, but didin't get anything worth while).

There is an awsome program called "Editpad" that I usually replace notepad on my w2k boxes with. It's pretty sweet stuff and doesn't screw up unix files by saving them with \r\n so they work correctly without extra pain and hassle.

Should be able to find it from a site like http://www.shareware.com I believe it's free.

I use Homesite and Notepad. Mostly Homesite because it has the colored code and it is easier to find things. For tables that get kinda "screwy" I sometimes use Dreamweaver just because I don't want to put up with figuring out all the colspans and colrow's. That's as far as my Dreamweaver use goes though.

I have used the following:

HomeSite
Textpad
Notetab

All are similar - and are basically Notepad on steroids.

Hi,

I use 4:
1) FP Xpress -- for putting up tables, mostly
2) Notepad & Wordpad -- both from windows
3) cuteHTML 1.0 -- the one I do real work in. It's a notepad for coders. cute is as simple or involved as you want it to be. It pops up html tags and attributes, allows you to save and insert 'snippets' (sort of like a library of functions), doesn't chew up dHTML (which FP Xpress does all the time), allows you to view the page in the browser/s of your choice, color codes the tags for crossBrowser compatibility, opens any sort of text file, and best of all is free -- GlobalScape

thanks Mike
