[SOLVED] Fundamental issue with dreamweaver


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

I've being developing websites using xhtml and css before, and dreamweaver  cs3 was great for that, but when I'm now programming with php and mysql, I found it was near junk.

 

First, the auto-code completion for html doesn't work anymore as long as it's within the <?php ?> tags. It only shows the code hint, making it a lot longer to code if I want to include html stuff in there.

 

Also there is no effective code hint for php as well. eg. When I start typing a function, it only gives me the format of the function and not the codes available in which I could choose from and then simply press enter (like how in normal html when I type < it gives me all the available tags like <p>, <h1>...) . This essentially means I have to type out every php function completely by hand! I thought dreamweaver was MADE FOR programming. What's the problem. Can the above be solved or what is it. Because it really annoys me that I have to remember or look up every function every time!

 

If dreamweaver cannot do some effective code hint, anyone know a better editor?

 

Thanks.
