Hello,
I would like to find a Text Editor like Windows Notepad, but more advanced. I would like something that can do multiple programming languages also. Any suggestions? Thanks.

WordPad?

Thanks for the reply, but I am looking for something like an actual code editor. Notepad and Wordpad can certainly do this, but I am looking for a dedicated text editor for things like HTML, PHP, etc. An example would be NoteTab.

If you want an html, Javascript, ect. editor then I would reccomend First Page because its free.

Here is another free editor, I know it supports HTML and Javascript, but I'm not sure if it supports PHP, it should, but I'm not sure. http://www.coffeecup.com/free-editor/

Oh, yeah I have CoffeeCup too but don't use it, First Page has more features and around 1000 preinstalled scripts.

Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind for next time.

Sure...whatever and

hello my friend

I don't know about the free version listed above the paid version of CoffeeCup supports php as well as html... or any text for that matter. See the attached image, things to note are the highlighting, the tabs to the left. I have the html tags pane open in this shot, by clicking the tags to the left it inserts the closing and ending tags. This feature also has php code. The snippet tab for example is for creating a library of your own lines of code you use frequently, inserts by clicking it... The tabs on the top are pretty much self exaplamtory, it does have a WYSIWYG feature but I don't use that. Lat thing to note is the tabs on the bottom, those are for multiple documents... lots of features and entirely too many to mention here.

notepad++ freeware

you pick a language and it will appropriately color code and check syntax

I don't need a lot of "bells and wistles". A nice fast-loading, lightweight editor is what I use.

http://www.crimsoneditor.com/

It has some nice stuff: FTP, record/play macros, etc. And you can create your own syntax keys, as well as change the basic syntax colors and the text font, etc.

oh....I hate that editor...
