Yes, dreamweaver is the best html editor tool but is not free !!!
It also has suport php, js, jsp, css, file

I use notepad++ and total commander!

Don't waste to much time with the editor try to learn html and css at highest level!

fam and dnotify are useful

fam and dnotify are useful tools to check if a file has been updated, and then send a call to firefox etc

VIM and a command line is great, I use VIM with GNU Screen, and it works a treat.

GNU Screen should be getting vertical split as well soon (it is in dev version already - and there is a patch).

Add ctags and you are off

What is really nice is you can customise and script the vim editor, so anything is possible in it really, gvim is quite nice as well, but I do tend to stick with vim out of habit and convenience.

There is abbreviations, so for a given project you can quickly create your own shorthand, and share it amongst a team with ease, and it is often used to correct common typo mistakes, so type teh and once you hit space VIM replaces the typo so you get the.

Oh if you are doing web stuff, a template toolkit is also very very handy, mako or perl template toolkit is generally what I use.

visual studio is the best of the best no question

Eclipse is comparable, and can be used with a wider range of tool chains than Visual Studio.

.NET may support Microsoft versions of many supported languages, but Visual Studio only works with .NET.

Personally, I'd rather have a decent text editor, like Vim, which can be used with any language (including markup).

I've been using deamviewer

I've been using deamviewer and visual studio.net for my projects. visual studio is the best of the best no question but we can use it only for ASP.NET that's the problem. So Deamviewer is the best tool for all.

Am also a Vim user, haven't tried creating a shell script to update the browser though. Good idea!

I like Notepad++ alot, but

aharown07 — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 12:46:26 +0000

I like Notepad++ alot, but also find NoteTab quite handy in a number of situations (http://www.notetab.com). What I like about NoteTab is - it doesn't insert a bunch of code automatically like NVU ... has a preview option (loads in IE or FF)... and lots of little coding shortcuts.
But I only use it special situations where I need clean simple html and nothing but html (like, for example on one WordPress site with a broken wysiwyg editor but which is also very fussy about what code it will accept).

GVIM and vim are great

FireFleur — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 06:00:59 +0000

GVIM and vim are great editors, sure the learning curve is a little steep, but once you are off it works very well for any coding or just plain writing.

A bit of shell script will allow you to update the browser when the file you are working on changes, google does something called xrefresh as well. Better to view the page in the actual target than in some preview.

I have been using vi and now vim for years, but if I had my chance from the very start it would have been the editor I would have learnt, as opposed to anything else, had I but known about it Vi has been kicking around since 1976.

Not only is the editor very powerful, it is also lite weight, when you have to edit that file on a server it is useful to quickly ssh in and make that edit.

I would recomend nvu for a

cmoyer — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 21:23:05 +0000

I would recomend nvu for a visual editor Found Here

And Crimson Editor for just basic coding Found Here

These are the ones that I use in Windows but on a Mac I use Smultron for a text editor Found here

I also use filezilla on Windows and CyberDuck on the Mac.
