dewey_witt Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Why doesnt dreamweaver 8 recognize functions like session_regenerate_id() ? And is there a fix???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zq29 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Maybe PHP 4.3.2 came out after DW8 and Macromedia (now owned by Adobe) didn't update that piece of software? Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooldude832 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I'm not trying to say dreamweaver is a horrible program, however it is not considered to be a good scripting editor. This mainly comes from the fact that most scripters started in notepad, any basic text editor and haven't found the use for a dreamweaver. Dreamweaver (at least the last version I ever used) tends to not display right, and the wyswig xhtml editor does not follow or promote acid2, w3 standards. If you use it for the built in ftp on save functions vs a copy paste on every save, there are lots of text editors out there that do it. I guess my point is why pay for a program that isn't designed for you. also the session_register nomenclature was changed in 4.1 with super globals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonInflux Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I believe CS3 has had a lot of work done on the coding aspect of design. However, I am an MX 2004 veteran, and I do everything in MX2004. For PHP, none of the macromedia-released versions are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LemonInflux Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I know -.- By macromedia-released, I meant releases pre-buyout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooldude832 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Like i said most of the people doing scripting are old school C programmers use to command prompt ftp/notepad, that or you are taught by them and they have shared their methods. I personally use notepad++ and if i'm on a windows machine i will use windows explorer to ftp. I like the way it handles return lines, tabbing, color coding and so forth. I also feel using it has made me a better xhtml,css,php programer because i have to know my stuff to do what I want vs a wyswyg. Of course now that I got a tablet pc that might change as I saw a person in dw with a tablet do really nice layouts quickly with the stylist.

One out of ten people I know that has skills in PHP also has knowledge in something like C, and almost everyone was self taught. When I first started with PHP, I used Dreamweavers code view. It had line numbering, coloured syntax, auto-indenting and a cool auto-complete feature when starting to type function names, and it also pointed out what parameters the function expects - Saves jumping to the manual to find out which was the needle and haystack are in some functions! In someways I wish I still used it day to day, but as far as I'm aware, there isn't a native Linux port. I still use it on my MacBook when I'm not at one of my desks though. Does anyone know of a Linux IDE for PHP that has those auto-indent and auto-complete functions? They were such a time saver... Moral of the story? I don't think DW is just for newbs.

dewey_witt Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 OK nay-sayers. For one, Im not a hippie. Second more than likely I know more HTML than you along with XML, php, javascript, AJAX, C#, and a slew of other BS that I will never use like VB VB.net etc. So before you talk shit make sure of what your typing you moron. And btw of course I use code view..... what decent developer don't? Every great once in a while I use the split view and about 20% of the time Im not using Dreamweaver at all. Im using edit pad light. But anyway. As to know why i was asking this question, I was working on a cients pre existing site..... outdated and in need of a good once over when i realized that Weaver didnt recognize some functions. So gather your beans google a good responce and remember.... stop kissing your dad freak. Wash that with soap. http://BlueSky.justgotowned.com BTW say hi to your sister for me. (and tell her I want my boxers back.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DyslexicDog Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I run Zend in linux it has most of the features you mention.
