Does anyone know how to get html-kit to word wrap, if it's possible? I'm just talking about getting all my text in the web page I'm working on to display on the screen while I'm in html-kit. It's fine on the actual web page.
Thanks,
Amy

What the heck is html-kit?

html-kit is a free html/java/.net/php/<any other language> editor. Its pretty nice in that it has many features for helping speed along web development, if you like to look at code that is.

I don't know of a way to word wrap, typically if I need to write an entire paragraph or a lot of text, I'll do that in Word, proofread it and what not then copy it into the web page.

HTML-Kit does have a support forum and if you look at their website, you will see the link to it under the support link. The support forum is through newsgroups but they do offer excellent and quick support.

New one on me too, sounds pretty nice though, especially the support...

SinJin,

Most text editors may not automatically word-wrap, but if it does, it most likely will be in the configuration menus of the program.

You can simply hit <RETURN> when you are at the end of the line and browsers will not interpret the newline character as such in HTML. That is what the <br /> tag is for, so feel safe in doing that to format your HTML to your liking.

Joobz,

No, <br> will not be deprecated anytime soon. <br /> is simply the XHTML-compliant version.

If you are not aware, XHTML is the HTML standard which also complies with the XML standard. In XML, there must a closing tag for every opened one (e.g., <p></p>), but for self contained tags, such as <br>, you can include the closing slash in the following style such that it is considered an opening and closing tag: <br />.

For more info, check out the W3C's XHTML page.

Oh, such as <hr /> ?

does there need to be a space before the / or did you just do that in your post? Would you think it was a good idea for me to use these on a pure html site just in case I plan on adding new features as my skills improve?

Exactly. Of course any time you can code within standards, you're going to be ahead of the curve. As for the space, it is customary to have the space there, but I don't know if it is absolutely required. It's just a good practice to close all your tags anyway -- even if you don't plan to code right up to the XHTML standard.

Good luck, Joobz.

teh best editor is notepad, heh allows you to edit html, js, phph, perl and so on... &)

The answer is on the main menu bar:

View > Editor > Word Wrap

I am sure there is probably a shortcut key for this. Right off hand, I do not know what it is.

For Html-Kit answers, that are quick -- plug this into your mail or news agent news://chami.public.htmlkit.misc and ask any question you want. Chami will answer very quickly (or one of the others). It is great support.

For those of you who have not experienced this editor ... you should ... seriously. I cannot begin to tell you what this little bugger can do. http://www.chami.com/html-kit/ if you want to know more. Great php IDE as well.

Hi,

Just c the html-kit help file. U can change the word-wrap in the configration. It works.

What, was that a Hoover kind of sucking or a Kirby kind of sucking? Or was it too hard to understand, not enough instructions? What kind of sucking are we talking here?

Html-Kit has been around for years and is still being updated, has a large userbase who also write plugins for it. You are in the minority I guess. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
