The best of the Web starts with a HTML page. HTML-Kit Tools provides tools for creating great web pages and scripts, but also stays out of your way so that you have full control over your code.
If you're a professional web developer, you'll appreciate the many customizable shortcuts, preview options, file versioning / backup, and the attention to detail.
Just getting started? You can easily test pages before publishing. HTML Tidy can point out errors and suggest improvements. Various wizards can create web page content from text and images.
Whether you're working on a single site or managing multiple sites for your clients, the new project features can keep things organized. Keep local files, network files and remote/FTP files in separate folders. Or bring them together into a single virtual folder.
If you've found directory-based projects difficult to manage, you'll be pleasantly surprised how easy it is to create and use projects in HTML-Kit Tools. Not ready to use projects? No problem. You can still use Workspace-style folders for editing local and online files.
Since HTML-Kit Tools doesn't use the Windows registry to store settings, you get a cleaner installation, hassle-free system upgrades, and the ability to take your work with you. In fact, by copying only a handful of files, you can take your projects, templates, snippets, plugins, preferences and more with you on USB/portable drives.
Did you know that HTML-Kit was the first editor to integrate HTML Tidy and give it a graphical user interface? HTML-Kit Tools takes it to the next level by highlighting what's different between your original code and the code suggested by HTML Tidy. You also have the option of viewing Tidy messages directly in the editor, below related lines.
In addition to HTML Tidy, W3C validators are available for checking CSS, HTML and XHTML to keep your web pages standards-compliant. Other validators can be added through plugins.
