What Software is used for Web Designing In Linux?

[NightSky]

Hi,
I want to do webpages using Linux Slackware8. What is the software I use in Linux for making webpages and related graphics? Linux is new to me. Thanks

I have messed with Gimp a little, .. but It seems like it needs a little more develpment before i can toss aside good ole photoshop on my windoze machine.

maybe i haven't given it a good chance..

anyone else have any ideas?

I can't speak for graphics software, it's not really my bag. Here's a rundown of just a few options for editing webpages / css whatever.

• VIM - my personal all time favorite editor, I use it for everything. I find it's very good at editing HTML / CSS because of the syntax highlighting (also works with C/Perl/Python/etc).
• Emacs - the other editor. Also has syntax highlighting.
• Bluefish - I've also used this when I have a big project and have to juggle several files at once. Provides a nice work environment, syntax highlighting, tag completion.
• Netscape / Mozilla composer - basic WYSIWYG editors that may or may not be included with your default install of these browsers. Usefull to a point, if you absolutely don't want to mess with HTML.

There are a few other web development environments and editors, if one of the above don't grab ya, take a look on Google. Luck!

i have only used emacs, i found it much easier to use than a standard editor & ftp software... i really liked how it checked {} to make sure they were complete.

place your cursor possitioned on the right side of the } you wan to check the match for, then press C-left-arrow (<ctrl><left arrow>) same procedure if its the { you want to find the match for, place cursor to the left of it, use <ctrl><right arrow>..

That simple.. (Or else I've made a remarkable easy to use .emacs setting.. If this is the case, let me know and i'll dig for it..)

Thanks for the support I keep procrastinating putting my ideas onto my unused website.... like resisting committing thoughts to paper
