Astyle: A Free Visual CSS Editor
« on: March 06, 2007, 03:30 PM »
I know everyone is wild about CSS. :) If you DO want to make it easier though, give Astyle a try.

Astyle is a visual CSS editor.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) allows to separate the representation definitions of such structured documents as HTML, XHTML, XML from their content, which is an effective principle in the design of web sites.
Key features
Visual easy-to-use interface
Graphic tree-type view of attachment files and the CSS structure
Grouped view of properties and selectors
Automatic selection and grouping of CSS selectors from a markup language document
Source CSS, HTML, XML highlight code editor
Active preview current selectors and documents with IE and Mozilla support
Clean up HTML document via CSS...

I hadn't heard of this one before. It looks good. I'm going to give it a try.

I have downloaded and installed it on my laptop, but have not yet used it. Feel free to PM me in a week or so if I haven't posted a reply to this thread by then.

- no, me neither. These "A" people are not pegagogic teachers; even their screenshots only made me wonder what CSS is all about. But of course, if you already know how to write CSS it may be a different story.

But if you know CSS, it isn't any harder than using the program (In fact, I find it easier than the program).  The only thing this might help with is preventing stupid typos from what I could gather.

AStyle is designed for experts. New users (such as myself) will probably be confused by the interface and the general program.

In Short: New User? Find a more user-friendly program. Expert? Try it out, it may suit you.
