  • Ian Hayes - fix needed

    • Hey! Great idea and working well with one glitch that needs a fix. This Xadd is disabling links from HTML code to CSS code in both code and Split view under one circumstance. Say we have a tag:
      <span class="titlegreen">
      Now, we want to comment out title green, so we highlight it and click the Comment (ctrl-J) button. So we get:
      <span <!--class="titlegreen"-->>
      Unfortunately, brosers display the end-tag ">" as a screen artifact. Web4 is also brought into that artifact confusion, and dumps CSS code links in the HTML code.
      
      Please fix this by sensitizing the Comment API to read an adjacent ">" end tag 'artifact' and respond accordingly when commenting and when uncommenting HTML code.
    • Web4 dumps the link confusion once the artifact is corrected AND Web 4 is closed and reopened. Your API is not damaging the Web 4 programming. But you need to fix the HTML end tag bug, which is simply a thread sensitization-thingy. Good luck!
    • burb. This is the year 2012, and the Code View toolbar buttons for comment.xadd have changed from what is shown above. 
      "Comment out Javascript/PHP" on the far right of your button group is replaced by two buttons "Comment" and "Uncomment" on the far left of your buttom group. This  Web4 installation is Studio 4 Web Professional on Windows 7 Professional.
    • Not sure what you mean above. However, my add-in is now not needed if you install V4 SP2, which has now got a 'Comment' and 'Un-comment' facility which works for HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
    • Well, I'll be darned and pickled! I would imagine the ambiguity arose when your XADD was installed for SP1, which was then udated to SP2. Near as I can tell, Windows Update now advances the default SP1 install to SP2 immediately (with a NET4 critical update). Version 4.0.1303.0 SP2. You and Lady both. Keep up the good work!
  • Great Idea!

    • I have frequent use of Save As. Each day I work on building DWT's, the File/Save As... menu moves number well into the hundreds, and many minutes, in a month hours of time wasted. No programming experience or tools, but out of desperation, will try to make with Add-In Builder.
      
      SAVE AS would also be a great button to add to the Web4 toolbar.
    • If you use the Custom Toolbar add-in, you can have 'Save As' and other frequently used commands on your own toolbar.
