simple code editor with snippets panel? - html

I use Webstorm as my IDE and Brackets for some quicker stuff.
Is there a light weight editor similar to brackets that has a snippets panel like Dreamweaver? or maybe one that has a plug in or extension that adds a snippets panel?
I'm familiar with live templates in Webstorm but I don't believe there is a way to have a list of them in a panel that is always visible. I much prefer to have a big panel of commonly used blocks of code and html tags that are always visible that I can just click on.
Thanks for the help.

Windows Only:
Notepad++ has a a snippet plug in which does the same thing. After installing Notepad++ you simply click the Plugin menu -> Plugin Manager. The tick snippets and press install. The rest is done for you.
Alternatives:
Sublime Text has a snippet tool but it's not the same as as Dreamweavers snippet panel.

Visual Studio Code Not Auto-Close Tags in HTML

So version before 1.30 worked fine, and did close the Tags in .html file, but as of 1.30 update I can't finish and then try to close it with
I have tried to delete config.json file, also tried to turno on every possible option for auto-close and auto-complete tags in options, but nothing worked.
And Sublime it's working fine. I downloaded plugin to transfer Sublime confing into Visual Studio Code but without success. Hope you can help me out, since i've been trying to fix this problem 3 hours now.
I had the same problem, then I noticed that my select language mode was something like Django HTML. Solved after changing it.
You might have opened a file before that changed the language mode. So first, check the language shown at the bottom-right of the VS Code window (status bar), then follow the steps bellow.
Go to settings (or edit the settins.json file) and search emmet.includeLanguages, then press add item under Emmet: Include Languages. input the language you are using in item field and html in value field.

How do I program different languages in Sublime Text?

I recently downloaded Sublime Text, but I could only find 9 languages, all of which I don't program. I would like to code HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and I would like to know how to add these build systems onto my computer.
SublimeText is just a text editor with some 'extra bits' plugged in.
HTML, CSS and JavaScript aren't compiled languages, so you don't need a compiler, just save the file with the correct extention (.html, .cs or .js).
For syntax highlighting, click the box on the far right of the status bar, it'll list some languages that SublimeText knows about, including those three and will helpfully provide syntax colouring and formatting to help you along.
Sublime text is only a text editor. As for HTML, CSS, and JS, those are all present in sublime, and don't require a build system, just a web browser.
If you want to use those languages, use shift-command(control?)-p to open the command pallet and type sshtml, sscss, ssjavascript, etc. to set the syntax highlighting.
To run it, simply open the HTML file in your browser, and reload the page if you've made changes.

Eclipse and .tml files highlighting not working

I'm using eclipse Juno EE IDE for Web Developers.
When I open .tml files, they don't show the correct highlighting and auto complete isn't working. I thought this looked just like it's opening it in a text editor. I right clicked the .tml file and clicked open with > HTML editor and I still don't get the correct highlighting.
This works perfectly on my PC at home, I am at work and it doesn't work properly. Please can someone give me a quick heads up on what setting is wrong? I've spent ages looking and trying different editors, but i'm sure it should just work in the html editor.
Thanks,
Edit: When I hover over the underlined closing html tag, it says "The word is not spelt correctly". It's like it's a text editor, only I did right click > open with html editor.
(If not using Tapestry Tools, as uklance mentioned)
Remember that in addition to editing Eclipse's File Association configuration in:
Window->Preferences->General->Editors->File Associations
you should add the *.tml extension in the Content Types configuration in:
Window->Preferences->General->Content Types
there you should chose html or xml and click add to add *.tml
Have you seen the Tapestry Tools eclipse plugin?
Or you can just add a file association for *.tml to the XML or HTML editors.
Another alternative is using the JSP editor and a custom tld

Download NetBeans for PHP, open an HTML file and you will see
I don't believe this feature is in Netbeans as of 6.7 I'm afraid. There is CSS preview, but I assume that falls short of the full preview you require. You can preview it directly in the browser by selecting "view" in the context menu, but that again is nowhere near the full preview which you require.
Searching plugins.netbeans.org also proves fruitless.
"Web Preview" and "Embedded Browser UI - XUL Runner" solution is only working at Windows systems. My solution is using an external HTML WYSIWYG Editor for Mac OS X. There are some nice free/open source HTML interface builders:

http://ckeditor.com/

Alternatively you can use HTML palette + Netbeans HTML Source editor. Click Window + Palette. At the right hand side palette will be opened which contains basic HTML elements. You can drag & drop elements to your source code as visual designers but it only creates code. This function can also help you for some basic tasks.
