JointLogic Web Designer
JointLogic Web Designer is an Eclipse plug-in that consists of
two components - HTML Designer and CSS Designer.
HTML Designer provides WYSIWYG authoring of HTML and XHTML
documents
and fragments with support for embedding several server-side
scripting and template languages - currently Apache Velocity
Template Language, PHP, Ruby and ASP. HTML Designer
provides authoring facilities like Toolbox, DOM inspector and
Properties view. It
integrates with CSS Designer to provide rich authoring of in-line CSS
and embedded style sheets. HTML Designer integrates
with Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP) for HTML source editing and with
Eclipse PHP development tools (PDT) for PHP editing.
CSS Designer provides CSS
authoring facilities like CSS Styles view, CSS declaration designer
with preview and web-oriented color picker. It integrates with Eclipse
Web Tools Platform (WTP) to allow CSS authoring while editing CSS, HTML
and JSP files.
