This is one of PHP's biggest features... otherwise we'd just have another Perl... my .02... There are more differences between PHP and Perl than this. Anyway, mixing PHP and HTML ties you HMTL rather firmly to your PHP-Code and you will never be able to let anyone who doesn't know PHP edit you design, which tend to be a bad thing since many PHP-programmers don't like to design and most designers don't know PHP. You get the most readable (smallest, in this case) code by generating the HMTL in special functions calls, or by including you HTML. There is no need to have that nasty HTML bloat your actual code, is there? Ever heard about templates? This way, even a dumb designer who can't do more than click-and-point can edit your design. I, personaly, never found any use for having HTML and PHP highlighted in the same file and am pretty contenc with emacs cc-mode or that php-mode I got somewhere, which both don't do that. There may of course be cases where nesting PHP in HMTL is useful, but I can't think of too many of them now and never encountered one. Especially with bigger projects, it definately is not the way to go.

Re: [PHP] looking for a PHP editor
The editors that I usually use are Textpad and Jedit. I usually use Textpad as it's my favorite editor. Jedit is very similar to Textpad which is why it's my second favorite editor. The bonus of using Jedit is that it's written entirely in Java so it also runs in Linux (quite well too). You can download them both here: http://www.textpad.com/ http://jedit.sourceforge.net/ They both provide color syntax highlighting for PHP (as well as just about everything else) and both have loads of extra features (much like those of UltraEdit). So if this is the sort of editor you're looking for these are both worth a look see. As far as Linux goes, Jedit is the only editor I've been able to find that compares against something like Textpad or UltraEdit. -Toby - Original Message - From: "Miles Thompson" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "defender of the protocol" [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2001 9:50 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] looking for a PHP editor Editors are like hammers - once you get used to one, well that's what you use because you know how it behaves.

It should be stated here that vi (vim, gvim) and emacs (xemacs) belong to a different class of editor. If you know how to handle them (which may include learning a few words of lisp in the case of emacs), you have an extremely powerful editor that can do anything you want. This may not be an easy task, but it is no coincidence that especially programmers use these editors. This is why they cannot really be compared with Textpad or Ultraedit.

RE: [PHP] looking for a PHP editor
I mailed the author of UltraEdit, and he responded within 10 minutes, so I'm forwarding the reply. It turns out you _can_ actually make use of a version control system from within UE: There is a link on our Products page to Component Software's RCS version control software - http://www.idmcomp.com/products/ . You can read about integrating this with UltraEdit-32 at http://www.componentsoftware.com/csrcs/addons/ue32.htm . Also, although we don't use Visual SourceSafe ourselves, one user told us he was able to integrate VSS with UltraEdit-32 by configuring the following tools: Visual SoureSafe 1. Advanced - Tool Configuration From Tool Configuration Command Line: ss.exe checkout %n%e -GWR Working Directory: [E]:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO\COMMON\VSS\WIN32\ Command Output [Replace Existing] Same for checking in the file, except change checkout to checkin!
