Webuilder?

Post by G-Sun »

Ok,
frustrated with the pricing of Dreamweaver I look at other options. Webuilder?

I need:
- Project Manager
-- Explore
--Rename (and update links)
- Asp and php support
- Easy navigating complex pages and set of pages
-FTP
--Select resently modified files
- Code checker
--Support for national charackters
-Bredcrumb

and some more I guess.
So,
are Webuilder the thing for me?

Downloaded demo
First impression looking good.

Preview is an excellent feature, but I couldn't get to sync cursor between code and preview. Not working. Important.

No breadcrumb?

Shortcuts: navigate list by letter? Not?

Code explorer looking good. DOM-navigation?

Bug:

FTP: Can't rename ftp-connection.
Difference between label in FTP Connections view and Label for Connections setting.
Edit: Retyping fixed issue
Still a deleted connection showing up

FTP and selection starting to look good :)

Shortcut-customization :)

Now, where is line-wrap?
Edit: Word-wrap. Ok.

Relative paths

Post by G-Sun »

Now,
how do I deal with absolute vs. relative paths.
It supports relative? Or?

Crash on html tidy with some copy past.

Include

Post by G-Sun »

Now,
how does it handle include
- php/asp include
- css/js include
- css in php/asp include

Asp include: Looks like that's a showstopper for the preview.
No open includet file, no native handling.

Can I have Webuilder to use relative paths for images and such?

National characters:
How do I deal with national charackters in Webuilder?
This looks like gibrish..

Code: Select all

Det årlige karnevalet gikk av stabelen 4 dager i februar med høydepunktet opptoget på ca 2 timer med dansende og spillende mennesker. Det må være høy kvalitet på dette

box properties assistant

box properties assistant
I don't understand how to access this.
Is it for css-files only?
Edit: Just for head-css and css-file, not inline css?
