External HTML editor for RH

Hi all,
I would be interested in hearing of any external HTML editors
that RH users like using with RH instead of its internal editor.
Somebody please suggest a free (or almost free) HTML editor
that features lots of features, eg, hiliting, split Design/HTML
windows, clean XHTML code and checker.
Wasn't there once some browser called Mozila? Or was it
called Netscape?

>> RH MVPS? Adobe Community Expert is the term. There's
no such term as RH MVPS.
Right, now they are called Adobe Community Experts.
>> As soon as you open the topic in RH's editor it is
going to rewrite the code.
You know what, I don't care if RH rewrites the code, just as
long as RH leaves the result appearance looking nice, i.e., it
doesn't smash up the appearance .
>> Go back to your original post here. What is it that
is missing in the RH editor? It will not be the cleaner code. RH7
cleaned up a lot and I expect more from RH8. But until then RH will
rewrite the code so I cannot see the benefit.
It's been a while now before I gave up in disgust, and went
to writing in Word. But I had expected to be able to work in WSYWYG
like in MEW or Word, with powerful style management. I expected
there to be an easy access Styles side pane. There is not. The
numbered lists were not reliable; they restarted when they were not
supposed to. Both numbered and bulleted lists get confused about
their indentation. It's lucky that I once taught myself MEW with
HTML/CSS , so after a short refresher I could go into the HTML view
and clean up all the code and make the lists the way they are
supposed to be. But since I am at a new client and only working
there at 100 hr/month, I had to show some real content output, and
fast, and so I had no more time for RH trial and error. So I went
back to Word (-- 2007, which I also did not know, but since I am
(supposed to be) a Word 2003 guru I knew what I was looking for and
that all the features are supposed to exist -- ) and wrote my first
drafts with that.
Actually, I am so shocked at RH's bad WSYWGY editor, if I had
any choice I would recommend to my client to look for something
better (if such a thing exists -- dare I mention Flare...), but
since RH is an important TW skill, I want to add it to my skills
list. So if my client has recommended using RH, this is a good
opportunity to learn RH on their account.
I have a feeling that I am eventually going to make a full
circle, i.e., either I won't find cheap/free HTML editor taht does
want I want, or even if I do, I will eventually run into the
problems you mention, and I will end up writing in raw HTML, just
as you say.
Actually, on 2nd thoughts, I also have to be honest with my
client, and I don't think they would be happy to hear that a guy
who takes over from me at some point, or is hired in addition to
me, would have to write HTML/CSS. They would want to hear that
there is some type of WSYWYG solution for RH, either internal or
external.
Tnx,

HTML Editor for Captivate 7

Can anyone recommend a good HTML editor for Captivate 7?

Ummmm, why would you need a "good HTML editor"? HTML and Captivate 7 are two completely different things. Sure, it can output HTML, but normally you don't need a good editor to make use of it.
My guess is that you will see lots of folks recommending Adobe Dreamweaver.
Cheers... Rick

Licensing and HTML Editor for Large No of Content Providers

Hi All
Currently evaluating RH (paln to use XHTML editor for source and targets will be WebHelp, hopefully with RH Server and export to Word for manual). We have a suite of 17 apps and will use a master project and child projects for each app. Got that all setup and my master pages, etc. Export to word looks pretty good.
I have about 20 content providers (no dedicated documentation resources), so I need a way for them to contribute styled content. I really don't want them using Word as it's too easy for them to stray from the supplied styles (we have that problem now for our Word docs). I'm keeping the style pretty simple (Para Styles: ChapterHead, H1-4 and Normal. Char Styles: MenuOption and Note, One OL and one UL. I'm sure I'll add a few more.) So I need to find a way for content authors to contribute and edit. (from what I've read, the PDF review will work well for review cycles. Seems my options are:
RH: I'm assuming that if I want them to use RH editor they all need a copy of RH @ $1,000 a seat, so that's out of the question.
Adobe Contribute may be an option: any using it with RH? IF so, how well does it integrate?
It seems my best option (to get the project approved and off the ground--read "low startup cost") is a simple free WYSIWYG HTML editor. I can supply everyone the CSS and a template, and they can create clean HTML. Anyone got any recommendations?
Other choices? Looking for suggestions
Any comments/suggestions on the above plan?
Regards
Mark

There is an article on my site about using Contribute. I tried it and how well it works depends on your level of patience and the people using it. I gave up after a while! RoboHelp has changed to XHTML since I tried so that may also be an issue.
The free HTML editors may not understand RoboHelp's processing instructions and may well munge them, be very careful. Some are based on the Gecko engine and my experience is that inserts tons of blank lines.
I think I would explore using Linking first. If that does not work for you, let them edit in Word and you then use Word's "compare files" function to find the changes and make them manually. We have also asked editors to mark any changes with three hash symbols so that we can search for the changes quickly. It may sound a bit archaic but it works very well.

Html editor for jsp

hello ppl,
is there any html editors entirely written in jsp.
i want to edit the content on weserver throught the editor.
which should have the source code available.
can u plz help me guys,
thanks

Do u think there exists any WYSIWYG HTML editor
written in JSP?They may exist, but should perform very poorly in perspective to the existing ones which are written in a clientside language, e.g. JavaScript (FckEditor and so on).
I don't even know what he actually mean?
May be he's trying for WYSIWYG editor for HTML/JSP.No, I am certainly sure that he is asking for an WYSIWYG editor written in JSP. At least, he is asking that literally in the topicstart.

HTML Editor for creating e-mail templates for SAP Cloud for Customer

Hi Techies,
                 Is there any preferred software for creating e-mail templates to use with SAP Cloud for Customers ? I mean to avoid unnecessary errors when creating standard e-mail template which are recognized unified manner within the system.
Will appreciate with rewards points for best support.

Here is a template for the wire-frame that we used. We went with pure HTML tables so that the response could be multi-client compatible. We found that additional code caused issues with certain clients. In the middle table, we had linked icons to our respective self serve properties and additional support options for Chat and our own Support Community.
The content of the email will be placed where #Text# is. Our email responses include the content and the basic signature. We also provide our detailed legal disclaimer at the bottom with additional links if needed.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!

HTML Editor for iWeb

I create websites on a MAC with iWeb. This doesn't allow me to play with the html code. Is there a FREE software product I can access and change the html code once I have published my website. And will the html code remain changed even if I'm doing additional changes to content and layout in iWeb and republishing??
Thanks

Thanks for asking those questions... I have TextEdit but can't figure out how to edit/add html to my website after I've "published" it to a folder on our computer. I read that there are some settings you have to change but the person didn't know what they were. Does anyone know?
All I would like to do is add some metatags (that seem to have helped with good placement of our FrontPage website) as well as add a some copyright html.
Thank you very much! We sure appreciate it! We're new to Macs... & are loving ours!
Sincerely
Kiply

How to use iWeb as your WYSIWIG editor for HTML

Yes, it can be done - and as such, it is the best 'free' html editor for the mac, by far.
design and publish your web page with iWeb. In the end, if you are going to paste the html in an email or some such thing, simpler is better. but don't be afraid to include graphics and colors . . . everything that probably doesn't require javascript (because the email clients are definitely not going to render that).
then . . . .
- download the source of the page. (here after referred to as FileName.html)
- replace any of the local links with the full http:// prefix - especially for images. (this can be done quickly with a simple find and replace)
- download the css for the page (naming convention is FileName_files/FileName.css in the same directory as the FileName.html file )
- use the emogirphy tool at pelago design to merge the css style sheet with the html to create inline style tags for the html http://www.pelagodesign.com/sidecar/emogrifier/
that's it, now you have perfectly useable html that doesn't require style sheets, which you can use for sending emails, or archiving on your own computer. . . whatever you need.
hope this is helpful - it was for me.

"Open in external sample editor" seems to be broken?

Hey all,
I'm hoping that someone can help me figure this out. I'm using Logic Pro X 10.0.7 in conjunction with Adobe Audition CS6. This problem seems to happen intermittently, and on some of my machines, but not others. I've also witnessed it on others' machines as well.
When I try to open a region of audio in the external sample editor (For which I've set up Adobe Audtion CS6 to do destructive edits), I can manage to get the file to open correctly in Audition. HOWEVER, when I make my edits in audition and try to SAVE the file in Audition to send it back to Logic Pro X, I get an error message that the file cannot be saved because it is "in use by another application". It's almost as if Logic doesn't release the file to the external sample editor in order for it to be overwritten, and updated.
When I switch back to Logic, after I get the error message, Logic "refreshes" the waveform information, but it's still unchanged, because the external sample editor can't save the changes that I've made to the region. Can anyone relate? Offer me useful tips on how to fix this? Is it a bad configuration on my end, or just a bug in Logic?
Thanks,
Steve

Ok so I think I might have figured this out on my own... Apparently, if you highlight a region, and the region is open in Logic's Editor window, while you're trying to edit the region with an external editor like Audition, it will throw the "file is in use by another application" error, when you try to save the changes you've made in the external editor. I found that if I close the "Editor" window in Logic, before trying to open the region in Audition, Audition is then able to save the changes to the file.
Derp.

HTML editor with syntax highlighting and UTF-8 support

In an ongoing effort to move our lives into the cloud and into our pockets (and as a part of an article series for a tech blog), me and a friend are trying to completely replace the need for computers with our iPhones.
In some ways, it is going splendidly (Documents to Go Premium + foldable bluetooth keyboard = all my writing needs as a journalist solved). In others, concessions have to be made (as a practicing musician, my options are a bit limited, but with the help of Xewton Music Studio, Multitrack DAW/NanoStudio, etc, I can at least lay down some basic tracks, create basic MIDI compositions, etc).
However, there is one area in where we’ve made no headway at all. My friend has the great misfortune of being blessed with logic , and therefore, unlike me, does honest programming and web app designing work. And as far as we know, there is not a single HTML/script editor with more than just the bare, basic functions in the app store.
What we need is this:
* Syntax highlighting
* Support for UTF-8
A built-in FTP editor would be a nice bonus, but is not essential.
We found one for the iPad, but when we contacted the company behind the app, they revealed no immediate plans for an iPhone version. (They felt coding on the iPhone was, at best, impractical, but they did concede the fact that if there are indeed users who have that need, the existence of an iOS HTML editor would be justified, and possible lucrative, regardless of their feelings on the matter. On that ground, they promised to examine the possibilities to port their iPad app in the future, but so far, no signs.)
Does anyone know of such an app? Rest assured your assistance will be mentioned in the article series should you point us in the right direction

Unfortunately, my friend has offered his iPhone an ultimatum. No syntax highlighting, no computer replacement. It is strange that such as standardized feature has not found its way into any known HTML editor for iOS.
But FTPOntheGo seems to be a great app in general, so thanks!

Support html signature for apple.mail

Just include simple html editor for signatures on Apple.Mail

Thanks but this option not available in Snow Leopard :
a. Your Apple Mail is set to “rich text” messaging format as opposed to “plain text.” This setting is found by opening up your Mac Mail program and going to Preferences > Composing.
b. Open up Mac Mail and go to Preferences > Signatures. If the box “Always match my default message font” is checked, this will over-ride any text in your email signature. Leave it unchecked to be sure you’re seeing the real signature styling.
c. When following the steps in the tutorial I linked to above, be sure the webarchive file you use to replace your signature file with doesn’t include the “.webarchive” file extension. This will mess up your email signature.
Have done all these but won't work in Snow Leopard as saving .webarchive in :
home folder > Library > Mail > Signatures
is not available any more...

[WebView] external HTML loaded, but without styles and scripts...?

Hello again :)
I am using WebView to load an external HTML document for layouting and styling my application. Thereby I generated an executable .jar to use this as a sstand alone application. Here it snaps.
When I load the HTML, its loaded without styles and scripts, mentioned in the <head> part of the doc. Scripts, pics and styles are referenced relatively. That works indeed: laoding the doc in Chrome results in a fully functional website, but doing so with the .jar does not.
This is how I load the page:
URL markupURL = null;
markupURL = getClass().getResource("/mockup.html");
browserEngine.load(markupURL.toExternalForm());
getChildren().add(browser);Thats how the styles are linked in the HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/metrostyle.css">So consider the following folder structure:
- commport
# mochup.html
# comm.jar
- css
# bootstrap.css
# metrostyle.css
/css
/commport
I repeat: this structure works in a browser. Why not in the jar?
thanks :)

Unfortunately you need to form your xml a little differently.
<data>
<title>HelloWorld</title>
<content>Here
is some <i>html</i> text I want to assign to a text area.</content>
On the server I use a java utility to replace the html less than (<) and greater than(>) and other characters with the amper html equivelants.
However I am sure that there must be a regular expression syntax somewhere out there that will do this in Flex.

PSE 10 as external editor for Aperture 3 - 8-bit TIFF and what color space?

Hi all,
I'm taking the plunge and trying PSE 10 as my external editor for Aperture 3. I understand that I need to export as 8-bit TIFF files (not 16) because PSE can't do certain things with 16-bit files. Is that right? Should I specify a color space in Aperture or leave it as "no profile selected"? (I don't know much about color spaces; I'm not a pro.) I print on an Epson RX580 Stylus Photo printer, if that matters.
I'll be grateful for any help and advice. Thanks.

Can I suggest you buy Philip Andrews book, Advanced Photoshop Elements 10. he explains colour spaces and much much more very clearly and exactly what can be done with 16 bit files and what you then have to change to 8 bit to accomplish. He's written basic and advanced guides for Elements since day one. Usually available from Amazon for under £20.
