RE: SOT: Eclipse Plugins
I'd like to throw in a second vote for Aptana. Great plug in, and mixed with the tools from the Adobe JSEclipse (highlight an inline script right click and edit in a new window is the best) it's really useful considering the amount of JS most of us write now. I'd like to see something like that JSEclipse functionality for style blocks. -Original Message- From: Larry Lyons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thu 7/12/2007 11:32 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: SOT: Eclipse Plugins Check out the Aptana plugin for eclipse (http://www.aptana.com). It has a very good editor for .js, CSS and HTML. Some other extras include a .js debugger, and a very good FTP synchronizer.

RE: CF Editor
Personally the source control features are gravy. It's the features that are provided by CFEclipse, and the Adobe CF/Flex tools and Aptana (CSS/JS) all in the same ide, giving me the ability to easily change perspectives mid stream without having to open three different tools, which used to be my only option. As an aside, anyone playing with the JSEclispe plug-in on labs? -- Timothy J.

RE: CF Editor
I don't understand the complaints about configuration. You either point to a url or a zip file when you want to add a new plug-in.
