Yes. But. Answers to what's your favorite editor are as enlightening
as answers to what's your favorite car?

Not a fruitful line of discourse, methinks.

Cordially,

Interesting this works

select style= font-size: 8px  name=cruiseline

but this does not

select class=small name=month

.small  {

8x is a typo?

True enough, but when something doesn't work running it through a
validator (or even an intelligent editor) will frequently identify
the issue(s).

Validate early, validate often :-)

wonder why it wont work ...

Re: [WSG] Inline style works but css does not

2008-08-01 Thread Nick Tomczek
I'm not sure if this has already been addressed (the original subject of the
email), but have you tried using something like firebug in firefox and
tracing the css hierarchy?

As for editors Aptana is my editor of choice for any open source web project
(http://www.aptana.com/). It even does Ruby on Rails if you want to push
your projects that direction. Crimson Editor was an excellent text editor,
but I think its a bit old, and has moved to the Emerald Editor, but I
haven't used the new version. If you are an ASP fan but do the occasional
PHP work then the new Expression Studio would be a good choice, of course
since it's an MS product you'll have to pay for it.

This is probably veering OT, but I use jEdit -- feature-rich, easily

Ive played with jEdit, while it was nice I wasn't a huge fan - I know I know
I know paying for an IDE is bad when you have so many free and open source
solutions, but I do love my Dreamweaver. Have used it since version 2...
