Mark, Here are paid and free IDEs available to do what you want - perhaps! The perhaps refers to any need for drag and drop development (such as MS Frontpage where you drag HTML elements onto a design surface). There are drag and drop features in most IDEs but they are pretty limited these days. I haven't used Dreamweaver for many years so I don't know if it still has wide ranging DnD features. I have tried most IDEs and keep coming back to Netbeans IDE for PHP (I do all of my server side programming in PHP). You can find it at http://www.netbeans.org. It's free, supports intellisense for javascript, jQuery, HTML, CSS and PHP (plus other languages I don't use). Database support for the major players but generally optimised for MySQL. It has an integrated debugger for PHP. If you want debugging facilities for Javascript etc then the browser developer tools are the way to go (Firebug for Firefox, Dev tools for Chrome, IE and Safari plus whatever Opera et al provide. It's worth a look.

Must have a slick interface and integrated break-point debugger. Does it exist ? Hand coding this complex stuff ? You gotta be kiddin me. That's totally nuts...back to the stone ages.... And yes, Javascript is the "biggie". If improperly coded without standards, it's quite a mess.... Similar to VBA. The good news is there are a ton of good Javascript libraries out there. JQuery being the most popular. I do know that Visual Studio 2010 is supporting it...I saw a demo. -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
