Hi I've downloaded Eclipse, with CFEclipse today. I'll instal it tomorrow (it's on another computer, with the broadband connection and my usb drive didn't have enough free space at the time).
When I do that I'll get to play with both CFEclipse and Homesite 5.5 evaluation and I'll make up my own mind hopefully before too long. I did try both HtmlKit (with the coldfusion plugin) and Brixsoft's SourceEdit and I immediately thought "No". Anyway I found one place that sells Homesite 5.5 for a good price so it will definitely be either that or CFEclipse.

So obviously 'free' is better for a budget than 'costs something' is all. But fair point. Did I mention CFEclipse is free ;o) Mark On Mon, 18 Oct 2004 09:56:49 +0800, Brett Payne-Rhodes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Mark, > > Thanks for the insight.
