interesting that you mention DW - BBEdit used to ship with DW v1.2 (if memory serves me correctly) and that is how I was introduced to it. Now I don't use DW anymore.
I'd start with TextWrangler and see how you like it. I've looked at TextMate & Coda but never felt like forking over the $$$ and have always been pleased with BBEdit. Incidentally, most of the work I used to do with BBEdit had to deal with quark xpress's own markup language - xpress tags. But now I'm working more with PHP/MySQL/Apache websites. Also, (kind of off topic of BBEdit, but relates to Databases) I was recently turned on to http://www.adminer.org/ as a great alternative to phpMyAdmin. -E On Mar 12, 2012, at 8:51 AM, Janec3 wrote: > I am new to coding, and can do HTML well, and am learning CSS.
