YoYoGames (Instant Play doesn't work properly)

Finally added, gonna check out the manual

Edit: You should replace <br> with <br/>.

yes, a html editor that doesn't file your files with junk 9/10

@GMREC
Thanks for the suggestion, you might see it in the next version.

@Jakey
Thanks. ^^
It's good for peoples that doesn't like visual editors like dreamweawer, but want something better than notepad.

It is pretty good I think. I might use this when I make my websites, it is pretty cool.

there are alot of these about based on the same principle (the example that came with the GM Scintilla DLL), heck even i've made one like it - but this has to be the most detailed and thought outone so far.

Thanks.

Its a brillaint application, been tracking its progress since the very first version

It is actually a useful HTML editor, I think if I did use this as a replacement of Notepad2 (I get bored of Notepad) then the handy tags on side are useful

No, this is a HTML editor. HTML doesn't support the SHORTTAGS syntax. That forward-slash will not be parsed.

XHTML, however, does support that syntax.

Why?

Very nice clean interface. I liked the fast start option. If you could customize the fast start template, that would be very handy. Maybe have it open a file that it reads from to make the template? Other than that, I like the tabed interface and clean layout.
One other suggestion, would be support for external css files. Maybe a tab that saves to a separate .css file? I prefer to have my css files separate from the html data.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I agree with the fast start.
But for the css, you can just save the file as a css file and then load your html page again.
And to load external css you can go to the css tab and click the external css button. ^^

Didn't see the external css button.

WOw! Looks awesome!

It actually is a very nice editor. You could use a program like Notepad++, but this one allows you to click the buttons and insert them in without having to type them, which is very handy. It even has a viewer, which is pretty impressive. Although that loaderbar and banner aren't very impressive, the program is.

It is actually pretty simple though, as it basically takes a textbox for the code, and the buttons just add the text right in, but it is helpful when it recognises the open or closed tag.

Which, by the way, if you start a new document with an open tag, the button stays open.

but it is a decent program..

Thanks.
I'll try to fix that bug in the next version, thanks for reporting.

Awesome. I made a similar program with Visual Basic, but frankly it sucks

Your's is awesome! Great job.

Thanks.

I've added instant play option now!

Wow, this is great! The viewer is very fast.

- When I select something and press a button, I expect the tags to be added before and after the selected text (like the BBcode editor on this forum).
- Why are you using <strong>, <em>, ... instead of <b>, <i>, ... ?
- Add a 'reset tags' button to remove all * on buttons.
- The game crashed when I tried to close it (close button, maybe it's a problem with instant play).

Thanks for the suggestions!
-Yeh, thats something i've got to add.
-Hmm, somebody suggested me to switch them out, idk which is better.
-That isn't a bad idea.
-All the freezing problems are Instant Play issues.

<strong> and <em> should be kept, W3 seem to remover shorter tags first (for example <u> for underline became <ins>)

That probably was me.

The reason is that <b>, <i> and <u> are deprecated.

The help file did not work. Is it just my computor or is it the same for everyone. I don't understand much without it...

Love the look and layout! I am doing web design. Can it save to CSS?

I know W3C wants us to use <em> and <strong>, but this doesn't mean <i> and <b> are deprecated ..

The point is, <em> indicates emphasis, but <i> means 'this should be italic'. When using <em>, most browsers will use italic, but they aren't obliged to do so. It is perfectly possible Microsoft suddenly decides to use another font for <em>, but they will never change the meaning of <i>. W3C wants us to use <em> because this tag gives us information about the meaning of the text instead of the font. If you want to use <em> and <strong>, that's OK, but the program shouldn't use <strong> tags when a button labeled 'bold' is pressed ...

If you want to know what tags to use, try this:
- <i>
- <b>
- <em>
- <strong>

Very nice program, but the text selection does not work corectly if you click too much.

Did you made the text selection without dlls? If so, you have any hints for me? Because Im making a text editor, and its kinda hard hehe.

Anyway, good luck with your program. Would be cool with more tools and stuff

@Gamemakernooby
That may be because of an Microsoft security update, you have to go into the main folder of HyperPage and right click on the help file and click properties.
Now click he unblock button to unblock the help files and you'll now be able to view it.
If you're using Instant Play, i strongly suggest you to use the download option instead, many other bugs on instant play that doesn't exist in download only have been reported.
(I might need to put the application on Download Only.)

@CitrusLemon
Thanks. ^^
And yes you can save CSS files, but you have to manually add .css after the filename, i might add the css extension later, but Game Maker doesn't have the best saving dialog.

@Boffel
Thanks, but i don't understand what you mean with the text selection problem.
GMScint includes a text selection option.

@The <b>/<strong> discussers
I don't know if <i> and <b> are deprecated.
But i agree with what Matrebatre says.
So my idea is to keep <em> and <strong>, but instead of displaying 'bold' and 'italic' i will display 'strong' and 'emphasis' text.

This is awesome!
I always planned to create Program Maker but since you make programs like this , I'm giving up!
P.S. This is also some kind of program maker.
Great job!
How long did it take you to make this?

Haha, thanks.
I don't remember exactly when i started this, but maybe half a year.

I fixed the text selection without dlls, and it is also really fast now (for my own program)

But in your program It was a bug that got the last character to be "unclickable" and I couldnt edit it. It was fixed by removing the whole line, you should just click alot around to see if you get the same bug. If not leave it, because it was not a big problem....

The best with your program is that you can see the site design

I hope I will manage to make that to, but it will take some time hehe

Anyway, good luck in the feature of your program. Perhaps you can get cash for it someday?

Im looking up to be your big concurrent in the feature

so you can use this to make websites? has it got features to rival those already put there, i mean commercial ones?

Hey! I made some Web site examples!
Here they are:
http://host-a.net/FB%20Productions/Web%20Page%20Example.html
http://host-a.net/FB%20Productions/webex2.htm
I hope they help!

And kake_fisk , there's an error!
When you open the help file the second time or after opening hyperpage two times at once or after creating or opening a file it can't open the help!
I just wanted to tell you that!
If you want the program to look professional i suggest you uncheck this at Game options: Uncheck - Display error messages!
Bye!

@Boffel
Thats cool, good luck.

@Defuzion
Well, this is one of the simpler editors, but i don't think you can compare it with software like Dreamweaver.

@FB
Thanks for reporting the error, i had a similar problem with the viewer, so i think i know how to solve it.
But i don't want to uncheck the display error option, because then peoples can't report errors if they occur.
And it's cool when somebody actually post some work from hyperpage here.
But you have alot of errors in it. xD

They're not deprecated, in that link the guy put <i> doesn't look the same as <em> and <strong> not the same as <b>

Slight differences, but yes, they're different.

Really? Sorry...
You can fix it.
And I meant to remove the Display Errors when you really release it (when you don't want people to remove errors).
PS:THANKS!

Hey, very nice program, but I was just wondering about putting images in. Where do the images have to be for the program to be able to find them and actually display them in the viewer? I'm just starting with html, so it may be really easy, but it would be helpful to know.

@Makerofthegames
Okay, in the next version I'll have both bold and strong, italic and emphazie, underline and delete. (did i forget some?)

@Legendary
Thanks.
And about the image problem, you can only display the images if you either type the full path or upload it to your website.
I can't do anything with this problem, it's how HTML works.
Thanks for asking by the way, i should state this in the help files.

you should add a test in browser button(saves a temp file and opens it using execute_shell)

Do you mean a button that will test how the webpage looks like in your default browser?

Just like to say thanks for such a great product. I find it much quicker to edit my web pages with this. I highly appreciate the color coding for it makes finding code much easier. It has saved me much time.

This is nice, but I think I will stay with Notepad++.
If you make a simple perl editor, with compile included, i will respect you very much.

Notepad++ yay

@Glen
Thanks for the feedback.

@Pickle
^^

Edit: I'm also going to add css and php to the save dialog, any other extensions you want?

Great program Kake; very user friendly.

Keep up the good work.

I'm going to continue to use Dreamweaver, as it has better functions and stuff, but this is really good! It's almost like a mini Dreamweaver (that was supposed to be a compliment).

I recommend working on the FTP, though. It's a bit slow and occasionally returns errors.

@JSmith
Thanks You.

@Raidation
Thanks.
And i agree, I have to improve the ftp uploading.
I knew there was some problems with it, but many user wanted this, so i had to include this feature.
In the next version, I'll try to make a better ftp uploader. Maybe rewrite the uploader in C++ or Visual Basic.

Yepp, that means there will be a next version and I'm working on it.
If anybody have any suggestions or found any bugs, please post them.

Coding without monospace? Blasphemy.

Is monospacing when you can hit tab key and it makes 4 spaces?

No, it's when all the characters in a font are the same width.

Yeah, I couldn't figure out how to make it monospace either. I couldn't figure out how to change the font in scintilla.
