What do you think about 1st Page 2000

[NiXnAx]

I think it is a great editor, and I mean it doesn't need to be updated, cause the "language" it was build for is still the same.

But it would be nice with some extra features.

But still there is new languages that comes in use in the www, and it would be nice if 1st Page had a validating or tag explorer for most of the www languages

(feel free to leave your own opinion)

I still use 1st page 2000, and I do think it is a great editor.

There is however one major bug that rellay limits the usefulness of this editor. It can't preview documents containing more than 1000 lines of code or so.

I really think that Napoleon should fix this bug now!

All talk of new version is not worth anything as long as this is not done. No one can belive that serious developement work is done as long as no one in the development team can manage to fix this little but very annoying bug.

Even if it is not under development, I really feel that this bug should be fixed, as a friendly gesture to all those happy users
of 1st Page 2000.

PS: Is there anyone here that have tried Maguma Studio?
(Not the same support for HTML and CSS as 1st page 2000,
but it seems to be a good editor)

1st Page is an excellent editor. It was easier to use than Homesite by far. Perhaps because what you wanted was where you wanted it. Ist Transfer workes well for me all the time. I thought it was great.

However, time marches on... With the advent of Cascading Style Sheets I found that a new text editor was necessary and bought Homesite. It was a bit tricky to use at first, the pop up contextual menus had to be plowed through, and you felt as if you were having to bend to someone else's logic and capabilities, but it was learnable.

I missed 1st Page and downloaded it again recently, my...it was still functional but I was surprised to see how much I had come to rely on the fancier features of Homesite.

Of course, I am looking forward to the new 1st Page release, and will reconvert to it as soon as it's out.

I can't say enough good things about this kind of excellent freeware. I have quite a few friends who are having a very hard time in the job market (all of them higher level programmers). They have no money and are interested in making a bit of change with the occasional website. As soon as 1st Page comes out I am mailing the download site to them. Is this a great program or what?

When I redownloaded 1st Page, I went looking for 1st Transfer, too. It was not there. After picking around on this forum and reading the threads, I surmised that 1st Transfer had been taken off 1st Page. There were a LOT of complaints about it, and the complainers were all stating that they were using other FTP's. So, I suggest that you find a good FTP program and use that in conjunction with 1st Page until the new version comes out (which I understand has a dandy built in FTP feature).

Want suggestions about a good FTP program (preferably for free), search the forum. There was one thread entirely about that subject.

Good luck.

It is an excellent editor, however, I think it needs to address the W3C web standards more directly in that the formatting within the HTML itself does not need to be there. When you are coding with style sheets for positioning and presentation, there is no need to provide a means of generating the "font tag soup" and table decorations into the html itself. It makes things too difficult to wade through, and time is of the essence in web design.
