Mike, It's funny you mention that, because this is such a case of "to each his own" :) HomeSite has some sort of auto-closing... I can't remember how it works, but it drives me batty! It's one of the first things I turn off :D
Not saying yours or my way is better... Purely personal preference. ......................

When you type "</", DW will close the correct tag.

Ever! I have tried Dreamweaver, Eclipse, and a bunch of other stuff out there, but they just can't hold a light to HomeSite+ for its speed, ease of use, and most excellent extended Find/Replace. Plus I just feel that the interface is cleaner and more responsive. If I had to move to another one though (if my family's life was in danger) I would move to Eclipse. It has some great stuff for CFEclipse including more powerful code snippets and template outlining and component method outlining (which are crazy cool). ........................

I've always been of the opinion that it's much more of a designer/prototype/entry level tool. I'm looking into alternatives to put forward as suggestions for a DW replacement as others are now realising issues with it. Q. What IDE/editor do you use for coldfusion development? (and if you feel you want to expand with why and perhaps complexity of use, then that's very kind) Cheers, Ryan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256314 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
