Tidy my Code!

[Crew-Portal]

I am working on my index which at fist seemed easy to read but now that it is getting over 1000 Lines it is getting more difficult to organize. Where can I get a tidy program for my code or does dreamweaver have this function built in? Please dont suggest HTML tidy

dream weaver only highlight the text but maybe it will help  also if you have a good structure of coding that is not a prob you should use proper indention and naming variable

Yes Dreamweaver has a code formatting option. I'm on my Linux box so I can't give you the exact steps for what to choose. I know that it's available in the drop down menu bar. I have found that if you have nested tables, it doesn't do a good job of tidying that, so go back through it.

I am pretty good at organizing my code but I do not use up so much space as professionals do for example if I was making a table I would write it like:

 

<table width="900>

<tr><td>Hello</td></tr>

</table>

 

While pros would write it like:

 

<table width="900>

<tr>

<td>

Hello

</td>

</tr>

</table>

With dreamweaver make sure u have the coding toolbar showed, by going to View >> Toolbars >> Coding. Select the code (normaly in code view ) and click the third icon on that toolbar which is Collapse Selection . To expand it again double click.

What exactly do you want us to do?

 

All you need do is keep a consistant format. Ive written programs with several thousands of lines of code all in one file.. as long as you indent where expected and keep consistent I don't see the problem. Of course a good text editor helps (Vim).
