PatterSon Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Before I used to use notepad for html, however I've seen some programs where they have the line number on the side, which I believe would be great to find errors (at the moment I'm having to count down to find it xD). what free programs are there out there that are good? Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudinski Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Re: Programs I prefer to use Zend Studio, it costs money but it really is worth it. But for a free solution, try to get a copy of phpDesigner Personal Edition. Side note: Extermination™, DW is more of a styling program hat actuall scripting, I wouldn't ever recommend it for developing PHP scripts.

Floydian Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Re: Programs Does notepad++ have code syntax highlighting? I can't tell you how invaluable to me that is. I use Zend Studio Pro. The Pro version includes ftp which is another invaluable thing for me since I code locally, and then upload to the server when I'm done. There are free alternatives such as Aptana Studio which also has syntax highlighting, and ftp. Aptana also has code folding which is something I would not do without. http://www.aptana.com/studio/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floydian Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Re: Programs control + shift + F3 => Folds all the functions on the page... :D control + 3, control + 2, control + 1 => wraps selected text in <h3></h3> tags control + d => duplicates a line of code, or all selected code. Those to me are some of the most important key board short cuts for zend in case you haven't found those yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
