sandbox 0 Report post Posted September 22, 2005 I've been wondering if one couldn't use AJAX to build an online WYSIWYG php editor...http://htmledit.squarefree.com/ was my inspiration, but I haven't pursued it. Does anyone understand AJAX well enough to say one way or the other? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm really new to this programming language, and I don't have a lot of time, so I'd prefer if I could find a WYSIWYG PHP editor. Do you guys know of any.

Do a little research, https://www.google.ca/?gws_rd=ssl... First thing, a wysyg for php? It doesn't work like that. As far as editors go, any text editor will work. But a good free editor is bluefish. http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html If by php you mean html, well search google for a free wysyg. I doubt you're doing this as a means to make money or keep your job, so there really is no rush except your own impatience. I strongly suggest you take the time to learn php properly. If you need some debugging done, post your error message and appropriate code snippets and I'll gladly help you fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p_a 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2005 For coding I mostly use Crimson Editor. It has few really good features, it's perfect for coders.Of course there are others, but when one gets used to an editor, it's not easy to change it, even one knows there are better editors.

Spectre 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2005 Ugh. HTML is a markup language - it is used for creating the graphical front end of a web site. PHP is not. Apart from syntax highlighting and code formatting (as well as possible error checking), there isn't a great deal any editor can do for you. So you might as well stick to your free, simple text editor. Although I don't know of any, there may be editors floating around that allow rapid PHP development by containing shortcuts to functions etc. Anyway, if you want to learn any language, you can't do it overnight. I would suggest you either put in the time and effort, or don't bother at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arboc7 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2005 There's a program called PHPedit that is designed specifically for PHP development. I cannot remember the site where it is located, but if you are interested, google it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 I did it but over four nights! without sleep ofcourse... 191390[/snapback] No you didn't. You may have picked up the very basics of the language, but it is not possible to learn any language in just four days (not even the simplest of high-level programming languages). I would very much doubt that you are very skillful in the language in question if you spent only four days learning it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLaKes 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2005 A really really good editing program, which besides being great, is free is a program called Crimson editor. I really like this program and I recently stopped using notepad, because it has tabs on it which I really like which is like having lots of notepads open, and it also color codes the languages, it has line numbers on the left, and it shows you where a block ends.If you want to go to an extreme, but the downside is that you have to have linux (which isnt bad, but not many people know how to use linux) you can get Quanta. Which is the best editing program I have ever seen so far. This one is the best. GiMP and Quanta is all I need.! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

leiaah 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 How about Zend Studio 3.5? It is the most advanced Integrated Development Environment specifically designed to address the needs of the professional PHP developer to Develop, Debug, Deploy and Manage PHP Applications. I bought a book on PHP last summer and this was advertised at the back. I get an instant $20 rebate by buying the book but buying the software is a bit expensive for me so I haven't tried it. I rely mostly on Notepad and Macromedia Dreamweaver since both are excellent PHP editors, not WYSIWYG but still excellent. Here's the website: ZEND Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
