I am currently looking for a web development IDE that highlights the syntax of html and more important, indents the html-code correctly. I have tried Dreamweaver but it doesn't seem to have a feature for auto-indenting html-code while you're typing. I also have tried NotePad++ and Aptana 3.0 but no luck with both.
So I was wondering if anyone knows a web development IDE that meets my needs.
Thank you in advance.
I'm using an IntelliJ IDEA (I'm java web developer). IDEA makes high-quality formatting code in any language, including in an HTML.
Eclipse is a very very good editor. For indenting u can try ctrl+shift+f key combinations.
Also you can use Aptana Studio. It is free as well as a very good editor.
Koding is a browser-based IDE, and the editor text editor (Ace) was originally developed for Web Languages (HTML/JS/CSS) so it supports them quite well.
Again though, this is browser based, so if you're looking for a local-only tool this may not be of help. :)
I'd suggest VS Code. Because...
It's dev by Microsoft
Very good suggestions and autocomplete feature
Code folding feature. It will be extremely useful when coding for big websites
Interactive layout and amazing color themes
Live server plug in support which us good for checking the output live .
However, At the end any IDE you'd b using it will help very much so go with something suggested by the instructor during the course. It will be lot ore easy to use!!

I am looking for some online editor which provides drag and drop features to build the HTML code for text boxes, buttons, radio, tables etc.
Please help me is there is any website available for this like a Dream viewer?
What you are looking for is Bootstrap Studio, this is the description from their home page :
It comes with a large number of built-in components, which you can
drag and drop to assemble responsive web pages. The app is built on
top of the hugely popular Bootstrap framework, and exports clean and
semantic HTML.
I don't think there is any services that supports what you want (from what I've guessed when you say "drag and drop features"). Most of these online IDE sites that supports these features tries to sell you their services by publishing and broadcasting the entire webpage for you. Most online HTML IDE are only code based.
Regardless, I still strongly recommend Adobe Dreamweaver. It's quite versitile with drag and drop features to a certain margin. It also requires coding but its template is quite straight forward, code-wise, and visually appealing.
If you still want to give it a try, however, there is a life hack. This article may help you. You can try building the webpage on wix and then exporting HTML.

I'm on the hunt for an open-source version of Adobe Dreamweaver to use for my freelance web development projects. I'm primarily a source coder, but I would find a split or visual view for CSS and design work, as well as native FTP functionality, helpful. My work involves HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery, and ColdFusion. Native support for the latter, in particular, would be ideal.
I've come across the following programs that seem somewhat promising:
BlueGriffin (last stable version is dated June 19, 2013)
Brackets
CoffeeCup HTML Editor
A quick search here in the StackOverflow community turned up a couple of similar questions (see Dreamweaver alternative and Any open source alternatives for Dreamweaver using WebDav?), but I would appreciate more recent/modern alternatives.
I'm a Windows user running 8.1.
I'd love to know what others more experienced than me in this quest have uncovered.
To provide an update and answer to my question, I've found Brackets to be superior thus far. The editor is nifty in and of itself, but there's an absolute treasure trove of extensions to behold. For my specific needs, I found FTP-Sync and cfBrackets exceptionally helpful. They installed neatly and effortlessly.
Eclipse with the CFEclipse plugin , or CFBuilder (yes there is a free version)

I've found wkhtmltopdf, which looks good on the surface and works fine in very small cases, but it doesn't provide any real css control over the rendering.
By that I mean it doesn't use the print media type and page breaks are not respected, as well, on windows you can't control the names of some header/footer variables, or generate a TOC off of teh h1 tags.
Are there any real open source alternatives, I've tried xhtml2pdf which is a python library actually called pisa, but it requires reportlab which doesn't play nice windows.
I'm actually programming in .net but if its good and open source, the language isn't a huge issue.
This is an old stackoverflow question, but because google took me here, it could be helpful for somebody else.
Weasyprint should support what the author was looking for.
It supports print css features like page break.
Try weasyprint
It turns out there was no open source alternative that was simpler, but on windows wkhtmltopdf is just not the best thing, so we paid for a better solution.
Winnovative's PDF library is what we used
While it is not open-source, I use ABCPDF. I have a template page in .NET that I use for a wrapper to set up a custom stylesheet for generating PDFs only.

We have a CMS system that we're currently taking the admin back end and converting to Silverlight 3 or possibly 4 by the time we go to production. We wrote a custom JS / DHTML editor to suit our needs, and will need to do the same now in Silverlight. Has anyone seen any clues to a base functionality that we could build upon for our own app?
We don't really have the time to build from scratch, but it's looking as if this might be our only solution for today. Any help would be greatly appreciated. http://www.vectorlight.net/controls/rich_textbox.aspx We came across this control, but there’s no option to buy the source code. Something similar could be enough for now, as long as we could modify it to our needs. Price is not a huge issue, as long as it was less than $2K. That’s the tipping point where I’d need to make a real business case for it outside our team.
I work for a company that has just released a Silverlight Control suite and one of the controsl we have developed is a Silverlight HTML Editor.
Silverlight Html Editor
It includes basic functionality and we're growing the capabilities based on customer demand. It allows HTML import and export which I think is your key initial requirement.
Source code is available for purchase if desired and the price is well down on the $2000 upper limit that you have :-)
I hope that helps.
Have you looked at the Rich Notepad Silverlight 4 sample from Microsoft?
http://silverlight.net/community/samples/silverlight-4-beta/rich-notepad/
The XamRichTextEditor is a highly customizable rich text editing control that provides functionality modeled after the features and behavior of Microsoft Word. The XamRichTextEditor is provided in both WPF and Silverlight versions with an API that is common across both platforms, enabling you to incorporate rich text editing capabilities into your cross platform applications.
http://www.infragistics.com/products/silverlight/editors/rich-text-editor
We're going to give the component art component a shot. http://www.componentart.com/products/silverlight/editors/
I chatted with their support a bit, and the toolbar is separate from the editor, and highly customizable with our own features. I'll try to remember to post back some feedback if it's good, so that others can benefit.

Is there an editor that is:
Available for at least windows and linux
Highlights multiple syntaxes in the same document. (Ala Dreamweaver)
Tabbed interface
All the editors I tried highlighted by file extension only which isn't fine grained enough.
At the very least it needs to distinguish scripting from html, css and javascript in the same document.
Scite!
The answer is emacs. You can do pretty much anything you want with that editor. There is a 'nxhtml-mode' which you can use to edit javascript, php, html,ruby, jsp,css, whatever on the same file. If you're still at university, the best advice I can give you is to start learning how to use emacs. It will change your life, really.
Eclipse (very good, but heavy)
vim (doesnt have tabs, but aprt from that very lightweight and very good)
emacs (only heard about it that is is very good, but it has a steap learning curve)
hop it helps
Netbeans.
I've only tried it with HTML av Javascript for two languages in the same file though.
I have used jedit. Just need a java runtime.
Handling syntax highliting and completion for multi-language files is something the NetBeans people have been working on and has been available for javascript since 6.1. I got the impression from JavaPosse#214 that this has seen further work in 6.5.
I don't Netbeans myself (my primary tools are Emacs and Eclipse), but It might be worth a look for you.
SciTE FTW!!! Doesn't even need an installation! A portable single exe.
