Difrent colors in "<img" "<form",

[webdesiglx]

Hello,

It will be great if whe can change the color of tags to diferent colors, like in Dreamwaver the "<img" is in red color, and the "<form" tag is in orange, they are in diferent colors that so its easy to find some peace of code.

Exemple:

<table>
<td>
<tr>
<form>
<input>
</form>
</tr>
</td>
<td>
<tr>
<img>
</tr>
</td>
</table>


Sorry my bad english

P.S- I love WeBuilder I hope I can contribut to be better then Dreamwaver

I Have buy my licence yesterday

Evaluating Webuilder as a (LONG overdue) replacement for HomeSite. After the first hour of working with it, the #1 issue on my list is code highlighting! Being able to quickly and easily distinguish between the different tag types in HTML is one of the things I don't think I can do without. Any chances the ability to color code individual tag types will be integrated soon? So far, this program has everything we need and then some, I hate to move on to others over such a simple feature (I know implementation isn't exactly "simple" though).

I'd also love different color settings for Form and Table tags.

There appear to be similar requests scattered throughout the forum for individual code highlighting for <form>, <table>, and <img> tags. Just so it doesn't get missed, I'd like to add my vote for adding it to <li> tags as well.

Yes, I was going to merge / close these requests, as it was starting to get a bit cluttered. Will have a squeeze later...

I hate to say it but if you stop using a ton of table/tr/td/font tags, you really don't need a bunch of different colors for the tags - they're all HTML tags and you end up with about and 1/8 of the amount for the average nested table layout.

It's when you have to surf through a sea of table,tr, td, td, td, td, img, tr, table, tr, td, td, form, input, td, td, td, tr, td, td, td............. that you need it.

life is better on the other side of tables. really. ;)

Important question ... would you be satisfied if the tag names were in diff color, e.g. <table> or is it essential to have all the tag in one color e.g. <table> the second solution adds much more work for us because we have to re-write tons of code, but it shall be done if there is such need.

[syrupcore]

personally, I'd prefer HTML to remain single colored. it will only make it more confusing for me as different languages are often on one page like, PHP+JS+HTML or CF+JS+HTML+CSS or whatever. I think seeing form and table tags highlighted is just learned behavior from dreamweaver. maybe not.

being able to select a tag to highlight on any given page (like a menu bar toggle) might be pretty useful on occassion. Highlighting the text inside the tag only would be plenty.

2 cents,
will

Now in version 2007 this is possible, but not by default. You have to load the custom highlighter script shipped with the program.

You can write your custom scripts now as well, but it is really not so easy.

Is there a solution for this Example?

It would be very nice, If someone can help me to get this working.

This is something I'd really appreciate!
Coloured tag would help a lot, especially with not indented code.
Thanks

As a Homesite die-hard user has this been made available in WB2008? It is really the only reason I have not moved from HS to WB

Cheers

I second that. I am also looking for a replacement for Homesite - HTMLPad looks perfect for me except that I really miss the coloring of for example img, form, input tags etc.

I tried using the custom highlight script called MulticolorHTML for HTML pages, but that didn't do any difference and I need it to work with ASP pages as well. I also tried looking in the xs-files to see if I could cutomize it myself, but the files made no sense to me.

Are there any changes coming regarding this in the future, or what can Homesite-addicted users do to get their needs forfilled?

[gwmbox]

Oops I tripped and what do you know 'bump'

Any news on this one yet?

Cheers
