When developing dashboards embedded with EV objects, does anybody use any tools to create the html, etc.? Thanks, Rick.

When we built some demos for the last (the very last) BOSS conference in Orlando 2007, we used.....
notepad.exe
I did look around for alternatives but didn't like anything I found.
Wonder what IBM use?

I've never been near EV but I do do a lot of html editing.

I use Context (Free, Open Source of course)

http://www.contexteditor.org/

It has the advantage of offering syntax highlighting.

I use a similar tool, www.pspad.com, probably does exactly the same thing as John's. I like it because it highlights php code, it also will do asp if that's what you're into.

I'm a notepad++ user.

Has built-in highlighting for a range of scripting languages - can be customised to create your own 'highlighting' if you can be bothered - if I remember correctly someone in the old Applix forum may have created a 'highlighter' for Turbo Integrator for notepad++ - no idea whether it still exists now.
