I think they're called text editors... I'm looking for something to code php, html, css, and some javascript in. I've been using the code view of dreamweaver but with large files it's been crashing everytime I use the find and replace (with regular expresions or findings over 100 occurrences). I'm looking for a text editor for mac that will auto closes tags, like if i have <h1>Heading</ it fills in the rest and that has a preview in browsers option where i can choose the browser I want to preview in. Dont know if anyone knows of an editor similiar to this. Thanks for any ideas you have.
