I'm using the C# package of Visual Studio 2010 Express. I want to add an HTML file to my project, but the C# package doesn't seem to have HTML support (e.g. syntax highlighting) included.
I tried installing the Web Developer package hoping it would simply add features to my existing installation. Turned out that they are acting like different programs though. Still no HTML features.
Is there any way to do this?
If all you need to do is edit some HTML and want highlighting, may I suggest a free advanced text editor such as Notepad++ ?

Using pycharm and creating a frontend but I am having a problem with the css in pycharm, It does not automatically populate the attributes. I have to write complete code for it. i.e writing a border should automatically populate the list of relevant attributes which is not appearing.
please help me as how this can be fixed? or if you have any other editor suggestions.
Sadly but by default web development files like JS/HTML/CSS are only supported in Professional Edition. Look PyCharm Editions Comparison
May be you are not using Pycharm Professional Edition . You can use sublime text or others editor and run the program in command line .
I was checking the extension HTML Tools for Visual Studio and I found very useful the Peek definition functionality allowing you to edit css files while you're in html. My problem is that I work in ASP .NET Web Pages, using .apsx files to develop, which haven't got this feature.
Do you know if there is any way to enable this peek definition for .aspx files?
I'm not a professional or anything, just doing this for fun. Is there a free software suite for web development that would be better to use rather than using notepad++?
For example, I'm learning android development and I use android studio for it.
Thanks
One option for you to consider is Microsoft's new offering, Visual Studio Code.
It's basically a free version of Visual Studio designed to be cross platform (Mac, Linux, Windows) that currently best serves ASP.NET and NodeJS.
I'd consider giving it a shot. I haven't tried it because I use Visual Studio Professional 2013 for work, which is very fully featured. But VS Code will do syntax highlighting for these:
Batch
C++
Clojure
Coffee Script
DockerFile
F#
Go
Jade
Java
HandleBars
Ini
Lua
Makefile
Markdown
Objective-C
Perl
PHP
PowerShell
Python
R
Razor
Ruby
Rust
SQL
Visual Basic
XML
As well as Intellisense (like autocomplete, I believe) for these:
CSS
HTML
JavaScript
JSON
Less
Sass
It looks like it also has some sort of built in Git support, which would be really handy. Probably worth at least considering.

I'm doing a simple demo that involves creating an HTML page using F# and Websharper. Using the samples from the Websharper website I'm able to run a simple Hello World page using sitelets when I hit Debug on Visual Studio. I'm wondering if there's a way to package this in such a way that I don't have to open the file in Visual Studio and hit debug to display the content? I've tried using msbuild from the command line to build the solution but I've had no luck opening the browser that way. What I need is a way to compile the code and display the HTML page without having to open up VS. Also I'm using Web Applications (Sitelets) template for VS for Web Express 2012. Thanks
The "Web Applications (Sitelets)" template does not actually generate HTML files, it generates a DLL that can be run by an ASP.NET runtime. Therefore, depending on your situation:
If you simply want to generate HTML files, without any server-side computation, then you should use the HTML Application template instead. It compiles the sitelet into a set of .html files.
If you need a server runtime, your safest bet is to install ASP.NET for IIS. You can find it in "Turn Windows features on or off", somewhere in the control panel. Then, in IIS Manager, add a Website and point it to the Web folder of your application.
How can i build clean code for Html forms, tables etc in Linux with some GUI builder or tools. Like there is a Windows tools such as dreamweaver.
Thank you
Sorry, but the only way to have good clean HTML code is to write your own code manually.
To do it, you will need two things to start:
A good code editor that facilitates typing, like Notepad++ does. It can also be some more complex IDE, like Eclipse, Netbeans, MonoDevelop etc.
A strong desire to learn the web standards, using official sources such as the W3C Schools.
