Any1 Have suggestions for a good
 html/css/etc design tool Win, Linux and mac?

[perkiset]

Again I use BBEdit (TestWrangler is the free version) - I don't let any GUI tool write my HTML for me, always hand-spun.

VI for Linux.

What is "Windows?"

[jammaster82]

IMpressive, even hand spun style sheets
and all?  I like your style...

Sorry man im talking about more of a dreamweaver
kind of thing wysiwyg... For more artistic rather
than coding stuff...

[perkiset]

I own DreamWeaver, but it's more as a curiosity and I only use Flash Video Encoder from that kit.

Yup, hand rolled everything. I tried FrontPage in about 2000 for a couple days and was disgusted. Also, from a pure SEO perspective, if you want to really get to WH tweaking then you HAVE to know your HTML, CSS and JS stuff.

I've used the Topstyle CSS editor before now, its more of a syntax assistant than anything else though. The vast majority of HTML I produce is in little chunks and glued together with code so I just use a PHP editor.

Even though I try to avoid CSS and HTML wherever possible (find browser querks really annoying - plus as a discipline it just doesnt keep my attention), I completely agree with Perk on the handwriting thing, it provides total control.

NoteTab Light for windoxe.

VIM for linuxy.

The Perk is 100% on the code it yourself deal.  Best advice I ever got was to learn to do it by hand.  That way if yer css goes south you can fix it yourself.  Samysame for html.

Can someone tell me how to strip all html tags but exclude a certain tag in vim like leave all <p> tags?

Whats the difference in this
:%s#<[^>]\+>##g :  (non-greedy)

:%s#<\_.\{-1,}>##g : (non-greedy)

Need to remove html tags from articles but need to leave the <p> tags for formatting.

Thanks

If you care whatsoever about user experience and cross-browser compatibility, you CANNOT use a wysiwig editor.

DW CS3 and Nusphere 5.2 with a debugger is all I use right now. Zend studio is the one available for win mac etc, not too impressed with that one.

I like nusphere 5.2 pro, It comes with extras for html, might want to check it out.

Tried gedit but didn't want to tweak it , vim I use to clean up html etc.

I still have not found the code to exclude certain tags when doing a
search and replace on vim as you've read in my previous post,
can anyone give me some pointers?

[vsloathe]

$: sed 's/REGEX/REPLACEMENT/g' < YOURFILENAME > YOURFILENAME

Use regex to specify your tags.

No need to bring vi into what can be done in a one-liner. Replace REGEX with your string regular expression, and REPLACEMENT with the string literal that should go there, or the regex variable substitution. Either way.

If you're comfy with PHP you could also do like...

$: php -v "file_put_contents('YOURFILENAME',preg_replace('^REGEX$','REPLACEMENT',file_get_contents('YOURFILENAME'));"

Replace YOURFILENAME with the name of your file, REGEX with your regex, and REPLACEMENT with your replacement. If you need help with regex or whatever, hit me up.

I haven't checked how any of these work. TD could probably be of more assistance to you, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

[perkiset]

$: php -v "file_put_contents('YOURFILENAME',preg_replace('^REGEX$','REPLACEMENT',file_get_contents('YOURFILENAME'));"

I LIKE IT ... I never considered using instantly executed code on a command line for my replacements... hell, that could actually replace all manner of things.



Thanks VS

Thanks V,

I'll give it a shot.
