best asp editor

[avivit]

Hi,

I would like to know what good editors are there for asp pages?

Dreamweaver MX does not show the asp page correctly, if it was not made using it's templates.
Is there a better software for asp?

I would also like the software to debug asp, etc.

About what software can you recoomend?

Thanks

For Classic ASP I prefer EditPlus.

DW is the only coding tool that I use, and I have never had any problems. But you must realise that WYSIWYG tools ignore the ASP code when showing you the layout view, so you need to code in such a way that the HTML code remains valid when the ASP is stripped away. It's no trouble to do this but it's something you must be aware of.

same thing than fractalvibes
EditPLus is the best for me (but I have visual studio for asp net)
and u can use it for XML, CSS XHTML , ect .....

And for DreamWeaver I prefer not to say what I think :-))

Thanks.

So I understand that Visual Interdev does not show it too.
Right?
The case is as you say - the html part os displayed, but not the asp part.

Visual Interdev works fine, you have both the useless WYSIWYG view and the code view with color highlighting available.

You can't executing ASP code client-side. It must be executed on a server.

You can set up a server yourself, try checking www.w3schools.com for help. I use Hotdog Professional 7, which you can buy for $99 at www.sausage.com. I love the program :thumbsup:

For both classic ASP and ASP.NET I prefer Visual Studio (Interdev and VS.NET 2003)

I still like HomeSite -- Macromedia (www.macromedia.com')

Me too. :) And god forbid if I have to do some ColdFusion, it makes it easy.

yeah, that's pretty good, too.


if I have to do some ColdFusion, it makes it easy.

does it handle JSP/JSTL as well. that would interest me in using it again?

i use visual studio.net enterprise architect (and probably some other fancy name thing which i cant be arsed to write)

it was expensive but .. all i use it for is colour highlighting and it keeps indentations... i prefer it to dreamweaver a lot but i dont know why :p

HTML-Kit. I've used EditPad--it's got good search features, but nothing beats html-kit for ease of use.
