(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Does anyone have a favorite IDE that works for web scripting?

I can use Michael Pham's PHP Designer as I have in the past when I first wrote the websites (2005/2007), it will run under wine, but It really is time I moved to something in the puppy world.

I really need to get everything past html2/3 I think, since I shall be looking after them again.

thanks

You are going to be able to do a lot more with HTML5
If you have the time invest in that

Something on CSS for your consideration

If you wish to help with PHP (a server side technology)
then contact raffy as PHP is used on the web site and wiki
and he might have coding for you to help Puppy with . . .

A big one: Komodo Edit

Download:
http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit/downloads
(Linux (x86, libcpp6))

Unpack and move "INSTALLDIR" to /root/my-applications

And start with:
/root/my-applications/INSTALLDIR/bin/komodo

Puppy has Seamonkey Composer and Geany but aside from those, have you tried Amaya? it allows you to edit in place - I used the older gtk1 version of it (8.5 I think) (+ Geany for some things) when I was working on the puppy web desktop.

There is also Bluefish, but really Geany does most things that you can't do in Seamonkey Composer.

Sorry I misunderstood the question
- I prefer Komposer which is available in Quickpet
I will also use Composer in Seamonkey and Geany

Some people like Quanta - not for me
It is also possible to run Dreamweaver in Wine which I have done . . .

Quanta=http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 327#415327

I remember needing a kdeedu sfs which was off the forums. Which had some dependences needed.

A new Bluefish:

thanks folks, I'll consider this thread closed for now, and mark it as such.

@puppymartin: had already "raided" your bluefish and am playing with it. I will have a look at Komodo.

@Lobster+@?: Quanta seems to be kde dependant, had a version of it back when I ran SuSE9, wasn't happy with it then, ?may look at it again if I need too, would prefer something that is desktop independant. As far as Dreamweaver is concerned, nowadays it puts links to required functions that are on it's own site all over the pages and I am Not into that sort of code!

@technosaurus: hadn't tried Amaya, will have a look, thank you for the sugestion.

Been using Geany for a while, was looking for something a little more user advanced though. Thought there must be something out there in the linux world and just hadn't come across it.

I've also been using ff's foxpad, but it doesn't css properly (it's not suppose to be used for that, apparently, according to an email reply I had).

Just for a general rundown.

I've taken over care and update (main reason) again for a year for two other craft websites I built and use to run back in 2005 to late 2007. In return the groups have paid a 2 year sub for me (for my own site) using Webcity.com.au's Professional 1 package. For my own "stuff", I will use something like 20gig+ as I have some 900+ Leadlight Glass Sheet Identification .jpg's and spec sheets to upload, plus 500+ Hot Glass Sheet Identification .jpg's and spec sheets, plus a whole lot of Leadlighting Info both relating to the .jpg's and associated materials and equipment we use, PLUS a few hundred Ceramics .jpg's and info pages. With it all relating to Leadlighting, Hot Glass, Wrought Iron, Blacksmithing and Ceramics in Australia.

However as I seem to have plenty of space and bandwidth left, and after having had a "talk" with a few puppy iso developers, I Intend to set up a puppy .iso repositry (one way). At a later time and if it all works happily I shall also "do" something similar for the larger application sfs's . I won't be "doing" a full mirror as it's part of my design spec's that I wouldn't, that !would overload my processing power limits.

It is rather nice to have an unlimited allowance website again!

regards to all

EDIT: Had a look at amaya, looks very interesting but it does need a lot of lib's etc. , deb version doesn't work as such, even though the check dependancies says nothing's missing so are going to have a go at making a puppy package, there's a wiki and topic page for those that are interested that i'll keep up to date.

That's why I used the last gtk1 version.
Most of the libs it uses are not needed by anything else so you could compile them in statically.
