It's not a native Windows application, but I can see your point. It doesn't bother me personally but I know it has bothered others enough to keep them working in Dreamweaver or Homesite. That might not please some of the purists on these lists but everyone has their own preference. One last point - I have used Eclipse for a while and consider it my day-to-day IDE, but have never managed to persuade a colleague to convert. Most people I've spoken to just think Eclipse (not CFEclipse, I might add) is a buggy time-waster which invariably seems to crash too often. If you've used Homesite for 7 or 8 years with great stability then there's no compelling real reason to change. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:296342 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
