    Notepad, Editpad Pro, and NVU for the stuff I dunno how to do. Right now I'm redoing my whole crappy site with CSS and proper XHTML. Fun fun.

    Right now i use a combination of Dreamweaver cs3 (Home) and NVU (Away).

    I have NVU installed on my u3 enabled Pendrive so i use that when i got free time in college or when i'm somewhere with no web editor installed

    Just don't close Notepad or your web browser and it makes it a whole lot easier. Ctrl+S in Notepad and then F5 in your web browser and your are set.

    I use Notepad for most everything but Dreamweaver has been looking pretty nice recently.

    Yup, that's what I do. Editpad is pretty useful vs. notepad, I've found.

    If you are fine with writing code by hand but the debugging in notepad annoys you I can only recommend TopStyle. It's a commercial program but its well wroth the money. I use it both for work and personal projects. It shows the code and result in split screen and refreshes on code changes. Supports both rendering mode previews (ie and mozilla).

    Looks like this:

    I'd never go back to anything else.

    On Windows Notepad++ has no competition. When I need extra help there is also the Firebug extension for Firefox. I test in Firefox and IE7-5.

    On Linux I'm not so bothered, I usually just use gedit as it's preinstalled and has a reasonable selection features.

    On Windows, EditPlus. On Mac, BBEdit or TextWrangler. If I'm remotely debugging or doing a quick fix via ssh, vi or pico, depending on how lazy I'm feeling that day.

    Text editors FTW.

    Flash strikes me as inappropriate for an archive type site. I don't see it being a living format in 25 years.

    mmm, I'd agree. I just don't see flash progressing much more in the future, sure, we have flex and what not, but the acceptance rate is still too low for it to become say an industry standard. It still doesn't have the acceptance, nor compatibility as something such as html/php,....


    ...that being said, most clients still like flash, even though it can be a pain in the long run!

    What do you think about the lifespan of PHP?

    I hate to do pure HTML, but it might be the most future proof.
