There are lots of HTML editors on the market, however, you will
want to look for one that has specific tools that will make
building your websites easy, straightforward, and as stress-free
as possible. Review the following requirements you should look
for in an HTML editor.
Tool #1 - Word Wrap
You want to see everything you are writing and editing so an
HTML editor with word wrap is very important. If your HTML
editor does not have word wrap you will have many sentences in
one line of text that is really long and more difficult to edit.
Also, without word wrap you will be hitting the return key a lot
and it is simply easier if you have this function.
Tool #2 - Customize
Make sure your HTML editor starts out with all of the basics but
is also customizable to meet your specific needs as an editor.
This will allow you to do your job exactly as you like in the
order you want.
Tool #3 - File Support
When choosing an HTML editor, you will want to make sure it
supports long file names. This will pay off for you and cause
you fewer problems.
Tool #4 - Conversions
If you are working on many pages, you'll want pathway
conversions included in your html editor. With this feature,
your HTML editor will be able to make the conversion for you
depending on UNIX, Dos, or Windows and save you both plenty of
time and headaches.
Tool #5 - Keyboard or Mouse
Some HTML editors are geared more toward a mouse while others
are more geared toward a keyboard. You should decide whether you
work best with a keyboard or mouse, and then choose an html
editor that corresponds to your preference.
Tool #6 - Platform
Depending on whether you use Windows or Mac makes a huge
difference in the html editor you use. Basically, if you use
Windows you have lots of choices and options which can make
choosing more difficult. However, if you use Mac you have fewer
options and will have to deal with what is available unless you
want to change platforms.
Tool #7 - Budget
Your budget is also a consideration in choosing the right html
editor. You may be able to spend hundreds of dollars or you may
be in search of a free option. Both are available, so know what
you can spend as well as what you are looking for.
Choosing an HTML editor is not easy because not of them are
going to have every tool you want in the budget you can afford.
However, you can read reviews and test out different editors to
find the one that best fits your skills and needs.
