Can anyone here recommend a Linux website development tool with the same sort of capabilities that, say, Dreamweaver has? I'm not looking for a clone, only for something comparable. Paul Abrahams
Hi Paul,
You can try Quanta or Bluefish both are good for basic
and more advanced HTML.
I myself work on jsp and like Bluefish, I even find
the fact that is not so feature rich as Dreamweaver
attractive...there are some things I like doing myself
:)
Best wishes.
George

Having been in the business since the boom and bust of the 90's, I will make a comment here. (Flame shield up) There is nothing that compares to GoLive on OS X for front end Web Site development! Linux is great for database server / enterprise bean / php serving of relational data, especially with all the SSL secure capabilities, but GoLive on OS X is the drug of choice for the presentation layer, hands down.

I prefer to use vim on OS X, personally, sometimes with Photoshop to slice up images... :) Using vim ensures that 1) no one ever asks what I'm doing and 2) I get the same beautiful spartan interface when I go back to a good OS. Linux is great for web development, too. :) --Danny, who makes large sites by editing PHP templates or perl scripts in vim (yes, some serious developers actually edit HTML by hand)

I have taken a liking to Quanta which is included with 9.0 pro. (one thing I miss (although I haven't really dug around for it either) is the way dreamweaver would update internal links if you changed a file name, I have an company laptop with XP and dreamweaver installed, which has provided the crutch I need to keep from finding a way to accomplish the task in linux, as I am sure a simple shell script can/could do the job...... Other than that I prefer to develop code with Quanta My .02 JP

OS X is Windows, right? (Not Mac OS, OS/2, or even something truly rare and exotic like the Pick operating system.) Paul

Well, if OS X is a cute way of referring to Windows, Google won't help. But I did take your suggestion, and indeed, OS X is the operating system for Macs. Paul

You're quite right! :) But when searching for a CSS-formatting tool (aka beautifier) for Linux, I got too many hits. I'm looking for something like the HTML-formatting tool tidy, but instead of formatting HTML it should format CSS. So if someone can reccommend a CSS formatting tool for Linux, I would appreciate it.

OS X is the BSD based Mac OS. I guess the first 9 didn't work. ;-)

Most likely it's because of licensing problems... or maybe not. In any case, I prefer Dreamweaver 'though I haven't use it in WYSIWYG mode :p Use Quanta -- highly recommended (now part of kdewebdev3) -- - E - on SUSE 9.1 | blackbox 0.70b2 | Panasonic CF-L1 Buffalo WLI-PCM-L11GP | copperwalls was here ;) "Happy are the mild-tempered ones, since they will inherit the earth." - Matthew 5:3

Nvu is beginning to get those features. It's still very young, pretty much undocumented and free. www.nvu.com Jim

nothing is quite as good at creating crud as dreamweaver talk about bloat or what . I have witnessed a site grow in size Mb used by almost 3 times with no extra functionality just because it was re-written using dreamweaver got to be one of the worst out .. Quanta works a treat . -- Linux user No: 256242 Machine No: 139931 G6NJR Pete also MSA registered "Quinton 11" A Linux Only area Happy bug hunting M$ clan, The time is here to FORGET that M$ Corp ever existed the world does not NEED M$ Corp the world has NO USE for M$ Corp it is time to END M$ Corp , Play time is over folks time for action approaches at an alarming pace the death knell for M$ Copr has been sounded .
