I just found the strip tag function in dreamweaver and I have to say:
HOW...FUCKING...AWESOME...

I'm implementing style sheets for all the text and some navigation for over 200 static sites. DW is able to search all the documents for every site at once and strip the beginning and end font tags for a variety of conditions and in whatever order the font tag is written (for example if the face property is before the color property in the font tage, vice-versa, and etc.).

I know you can do this with most text editors, but I'm not sure it's as powerful as DW's strip tag function.

In fact, this has saved me SO MUCH time -- I'm able to start this thread and brag about it

oh, the little things that make life easier make me

, especially when there are so many things that make design life hard...

lots of hidden gems, the find and replace is good - apply it to a whole directory/site etc.
I also like the site managment features - you can move pages around and into different directories and it updates all links on any pages to point to it.
These are all i use dmx for anymore.

discover the power of homesite you must, then release your beaver.

They're trying to get me to use homesite at work, I prefer topstyle though.

roto · 13-11-2003, 19:11

Link me to some info about homesite por favor

Oh and Oli, I use those features you mentioned all the time.

homesite was bought up by macromedia... - there should be a demo version on your "regular" dreamweaver disc

Brown · 14-11-2003, 04:29

originally made by the that bradbury bloke who does topstyle. its a code monkey's love toy.

I downloaded DW after a purchase off the net and didn't opt for the CD.

BLAST!

TIA
