Hi Tim, there is no single best authoring environment for SVG.
I currently use gedit with sveral plugins, OxygenXML, Opera dragonfly and the Mozilla developer tools. Just today, Webkit also announced enhanced web developer tools in Webkit (http://webkit.org/blog/). Apache Batik also has a debugger. Eclipse may offer some good web-developer tools, probably not specifically designed for SVG, but useful nevertheless. OxygenXML also offers an Eclipse plugin. All of those tools are general web-developer tools, often not specifically designed for SVG - nevertheless, most of them work with SVG. Batik is useful for testing SVG only content, since it is very standards compliant and offers DOM viewer/JS debugger. Opera is a very good browser for developing SVG only and mixed HTML/SVG applications. Hope this helps, Andreas --- In [email protected], "tim.becker80" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey you all.
