I've used CCHTML Editor for many (many) years but haven't done much for a couple years now. However, I've retired and want to spend some of my newly found spare time to get to know all the CC apps again. Recently, I downloaded Win 7 Beta OS and found that it allowed me to run ALL my winX programs including the new 2009 Html Editor. The I came across a magazine with Ubuntu 9.04 on a free cd. After some research I decided to install Ubuntu on my new laptop and set it up as a dual boot machine (Win7 & Ubuntu). Next I found a nice Debian based Genealogical Program which could Import my BrothersKeeper Data from a Win7 BK generated GED file. All went smoothly. Next I found a site that listed software equivalents (WIN to Linux (& Variants) When I found Coffee Cup HTML under the WIN7 Apps list it provided a link to CoffeeCup/HTML Editor in the linux table. I hit this link and it took me to A CC message saying page not found.
Now I don't want to mess around with WMWare or VurtualBox and would like to run my Coffee CUp software natively in Ubuntu (Linux var).
My question is: Does Coffee Cup provide its apps in Linux (Debian based).
I want to stay with CoffeeCup and eventually I'll give Bill Gates the flick permanently but not until I'm certasin I can run all my Apps under a Linux environment.

I am sorry but we do not have any software that will run under Linux. We do plan on supporting OS X, but I really don't see Linux anytime in our near future.

Sorry........ ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Well... I am currently sad about the new version of the CoffeeCup HTML Editor. I didn't found any new features at all! New design is not means "new features"! If I will wear new T-shirt it won't mean I lost my over pounds!

I like CoffeeCup HTML Editor absolutely, but we must be objective more for the mark the new version of our ordinary soft!

Fondly,

There were actually many new features added to the software. Did you get a chance to look over our post at http://www.coffeecup.com/forums/html-ed … ml-editor/ which outlines everything in this release? There are far more things to this build then just a new design.

Hi Scott:

Great news Like usual, anxious to see the changes in shopping cart since that is the project I'm working at now. Plus building a new website for a company I do contracts for.
In the beginning of January Ièll be releasing the new online store. Everybody will now about it on time.

The website project feature in HTML editor is great addition that will get more professional work done. Now if we think about this function a little bit, it is like spidering all links in the website ensuring none are broken so how about a parallell function that follows the spider and creates an index file that could be used tocreate the site map, or also the google search engine file automaticly.

Just a silly thought!!!

Regards to everyone.

Hey now! I don't usually say much in here, but your actual, honest-to-goodness hat-tip to hand coders (read: the .htaccess handbook) is a welcome sight and convinces me you haven't lost touch entirely with us dinosaurs. Of course, .htaccess does a whole lot more than handle and parse passwords (and always has) but of course you knew that. I'll be off to snag a copy as soon as this post leaves my browser.

Now on to other things (including some serious grousing). At thia point (and after 10 or more years as a customer, I'm still disappointed in the CC HTML Editor. It absolutely trashes existing pages in many cases, to the extent I seldom load it except to see if it will actually load a page without screwing it up, and so far I haven't had much luck. One of these days maybe I'll endure the pain of using it to start from scratch and see how it goes. For now I'll stick with EditPadPro, HotDog6, and [spit] FrontPage2002 -- all outdated, but FrontPage still renders the closest thing to an accurate WYSIWYG view, though its handling of fonts and scripts is abominable, and HotDog6 is still the best html text editor ever created. EditPadPro is just fast, down and dirty -- perfect for quick tweaks. I like UltraEdit for messing with JavaScript.

MS Expresion Web is at least as flaky as CoffeeCup 2009, insisting on plastering style tags all over the place and making [spit] "improvements" without being told to ... which brings me to my question ... now that you folks have solved the "structure" issue (which was never really an issue for me, but I appreciate the fact that it may have been pivotal for everybody else) -- why don't you consider doing something to make your editor "CSS smart and savvy"... in other words, rather than just cryptically identifying CSS and style stuff, actually analyze, look for potential ways to make enhancements, and then ('miracle' avatar goes here) offer some plain language dialogs with tips and how-to suggestions? And how about the option to save files to a temporary filename (myhtml.htm -> ~myhtml.tmp) when switching between modes, to avoid actually changing the code until *after* any changes are tested and accepted? I guess what I'm envisioning is a real HTML WYSIWYG-capable editor that could do some [spit] VSD type rendering/interpretation WITHOUT the ridiculous nazi VSD code protection.

And how about a more robust Flash generator? Fire Starter may be the single most useful content tool you've offered, and an upgrade with more features and some bug-squashing would be fantastic. Rollovers, pop-up images, tool tips, slide shows and image rotation would be big-time.

Have you looked at Cufon? It beats the pants off sIFR and is only about half as cryptic. It's a bit tricky to cross-browser configure, but a crapload better than sIFR, imho. I wouldn't pay $5 for a sIFR interface, but a good Cufon clone or frontend would be valuable to me. I believe that @font-face is the future, but for now Cufon is the best thing going.

I've already typed more than I intended to. Hope you realize I'm grousing as a fan and friend. I do use a lot of your widgets regularly and support you guys in your efforts -- even though your HTML editor kinda sucks, I see you as one of the few companies still out there actually trying to please its customers and constantly improve.

I bought the HTML Visual Editor but I won't ever use it. It is not compatible with any html I want to add, and I cannot pull it up in your regular browser. The .vng or whatever format you use makes it worthless to me if I want to edit in html. Sorry.

hi, love the CC html editor and i am going to try out the projects function (after working with editor for years, i'll try this out again now it is improved!) but i am always looking for more functionality with your flash software. the flash menu builder is great but limited, i was surfing today and found some apps that put the pop-up sub menus under/beside the menu link that you mouseover, which i like better. also, the mouseover not only pops up the sub menu but also creates an image change of the button/text to highlight it - great feature that it does both! i'd love to see more with the flash for menus and cool image effects. i'm hoping to add a shopping cart in the near future for a client and i will be trying out your software, as always! thanks for all the hard work guys, we love your stuff!
