Oh, BTW, I finally did upgrade my WP! You are right about the slow load, maybe I should switch. Oh, BTW, I finally did upgrade my WP!

As for VWD, it’s a little too loaded for hand coding CSS, don’t you think? @ adam

Good suggestions, I might give eclipse a shot, I especially like the idea of being able to roll back time! As for VWD, it’s a little too loaded for hand coding CSS, don’t you think?

I use eclipse PDT day in, day out, because of wonderful things like subversion support (subclipse) and saving local history (if i know something was working on monday, I can just "rewind" my changes). auto-suggestion, tab completion, and auto-closing round out the reasons it's better. although for CSS, microsoft's Visual Web Designer is hard to beat. notepad++ doesn’t really work for me. it takes nearly as long to load as a full blown code editor, but without the useful tools.
