FrOzeN Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 When I usually code webpages I just use notepad as I find it easy, simple, and no other features that I don't need. But one thing it lacks which I find really useful is colour code highlighting. No more advanced than when you view a .phps page on the net.Does anyone know of an [b]extremely basic[/b] php editor that doesn't have much other crap, I'm really just looking for a notepad with colour code highlighting.Thanks. :)Note: I'm not looking for the highlighting to pick up errors either, just to highlight functions, html tags, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel0 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I don't see why people don't want loads of functions. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
