php/html editor

dai · 02-19-2003, 01:08 PM

hi all Ive just set up a mysql, Apache server with php support in order to eventually create an E-Commerce web site.

However I have never used php before and was wondering what the best gui /non-gui editor I can use on Linux is i.e. one that highlights different languages in different colours etc....

cheers

Check out http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/ . I've used it a bit for HTML (I still prefer plain text editors...) but I don't know about PHP...

I think BlueFISH is a very good choice for php aswell as other web-stuff.

I only hand code my pages (since they're so small anyway), and I still love Bluefish. I have no idea how powerful it is for PHP or writing JavaScripts, etc, but as far as just text editing, it makes it a whole lot easier than regular ol' Notepad

I like how it highlights different tags different colors, and the little bar on the side for quickly switching between page's code is handy as hell.

Hey, I'm just a hobbyist, the little things impress me.

Personally, I've always used Kate (Kde Advanced Text Editor I think). Comes with kde, and the code folding thing in 3.1 is just genius. Don't know how I ever did without it.

Dude, try Quanta....

its even available for KDE 3.1 ...

its just like dreamweaver MX, but for linux ...

if you get the .tgz file all you have to do is ./configure

search www.sourceforge.net for it !
