Dreamweaver MX is badass
 

I just formated c and decided to install the new dreamweaver. It's got a lot of great features. I especially like the php intergration, does more than homesite. I Used to use both programs for development and design. Now all I need is DWMX.
Good job Macromedia! :GFYBand

lol j/k:)
dreamweaver has a LOT more features than may immideately appear.. its awesome :D

:1orglaugh

Yeah, I shoulda installed it since day one. Hey, I just noticed it's also called "DMX." :thumbsup

I just installed HTML-Kit, and have been working with it all day. I've dropped Homesite now.. too many bugs.

Is that an extension to DMX?

I just installed Flash MX - It looks very similar to Flash 5, but has some major improvements.



:thumbsup

Please refer to michaelw's reply. I been had flash mx. :winkwink:

have also MX installed but still do all PHP coding in EditPlus2

notepad notepad notepad on windows.

pico vi or vim on shell.

there is no other way. :321GFY all you color syntax loving freaks!

Notepad rocks my socks.
WYSIWYG editors fuck around with code faaaar too much.

whats the diffrence between ultradev and mx for coding php? I use pine for now but may switch dought it though

WTF is pine? curious?!! :arcadefre

Checkout EditPlus... it does some nice code coloring and auto-indent of the most used coding languages... php / html / vbs / jsp / c(++) / ....
I just love this 750kb tool!

because of dreamweaver i am able to make sites.. without it.. i would suck and i wouldnt even be in this industry :)

PHPED

RULEZZ

I see most of you use other tools too. Maybe all you do is code? Well, us multitaskers need something for design and code. With that said,... DMX is the best tool out there...Hands down. Anyone care to argue with that? Let's go! :glugglug

I must say, besides notepad for writing code, a little application called TextPad is also great! Heaps of extremely handy editing features.

What does DMX do for PHP ?

OOPs I ment to type pico, sorry it was late Its a linux editor like vi I just like the interface more than vi

Notepad sucks ass....can't handle large files just to name 1 idiotic
feature.... can't have multiple files in 1 window, lack of filemanager, search and replace are some of the other usefull
features that are lacking.

Do yourself a favour get:

ULTRAEDIT

DynaMite

Linux editors are cool for quick fixes without reuploading files.
For complete developement they are shite....well except for
vi, vim and emacs but 95% of people using them know hardly
how they work :1orglaugh

DynaMite

I guess it just looks cool to say....I develope using vi....

DynaMite

Not really I just always prefer developing directly on the server first no chance of loosing work

second you can always see your progress.

third what do other dev tools offer highlighted code etc..... I dont really make that many mistakes while typing and debugging is really easy in php.

The latest version of notepad has all that covered. Except for multiple files in one window.

Congratiolations Foe you must be falling in the 5% category
then ofcourse your arguments of "losing" work is not valid.
Ultraedit makes safety copies every x amount of time.. and
developing on your servers only really works if you have

a: The servers in your LAN
b: fast ass connection

Then of course there is always the option to work on a win
workstation accesing the files on your server through samba
so that you can work with an extremely friendly editor like
UltraEdit directly on your servers....and have the same benefits,
speed, and direct progress as you describe above :winkwink:

DynaMite

oh, and no file manager.. But i'm not even sure what that does. lol

And a filemanager which you can use to browse directories,
do search and replaces in (multiple) directories even without
opening files, renaming (multiple) files, etc, etc :winkwink:

DynaMite

That sounds pretty funky..

Oh Ultraedit has excellent ident feature aswell....save you endless
tabs to write neat and easy readable code....that's another
excellent feature which is NOT present in either notepad or linux
editors.

DynaMite

Oh I'm related to Utlraedit and I don't have a refer code...it's just
a KICKASS editor...which at least deserves to be tried out :-)

:thumbsup

Yeah, what does it do? I have MX, but I still use Ultra Edit for PHP stuff. Is there some secret feature in MX I'm missing out on that makes it better than Ultraedit for PHP?

It does more than any other WYSIWYG can do in php. :)
