If you want a good community site out of the box use Joomla and Jomsocial

After using Dreamweaver everyday at work the bright screen killed my eyes
so in search of a new editor I found Komodo edit IDE it's great I also use
it with a dark theme so my eyes are fine now.

You can actually change the theme in dreamweaver check this out

I found Aptana to be a really good editor,

I am a real fan of Coda. Its Mac only from the same people who gave
you Transmit (drag and drop FTP client). I hate editors that build a
lot of spaghetti code to do fancy things (Dreamweaver included). Coda
is very clean and yet offers pre-built snippets to facilitate page
building.

I would like to Homesite 5.0. Its a great tool to editing HTML with CSS &
Dreamweaver intrigation

Liam - if you like dark themes check out Sublime Text (www.sublimetext.com/2)
- the default theme is good but the optional Soda themes are really cool.
It uses Textmate themes for syntax highlighting. Then there's the
multi-select feature, it's multi-platform....
I'm not affiliated in any way. Just a real fan (and I've tried *most* text
editors - I seem to have a bit of a fetish for them!)
Cheers,
Mick

I tried text slime and loved the clean minimal interface but it didnt have
code complete or code hints so I scrapped it.
Komodo is the bomb only gripe is i have to manually type my fonts when
using font-family. but oh well.
dreamweaver is good and i used it for years but i cant stand it now.

EDIT SUBLIME lol!

I have a client who tried in vain to get control of their poorly used
dot com domain. Finally, we put the new site under dot net and worked
hard to optimize for search engine placement. After about four months,
we have buried the dot com (totally inactive) and pulled the dot net
up to the top. If all else fails, just SEO your way around the problem
(We did this through vigorous attention to active content).
- Jud <judsonvaughn@gmail.com> Nov 03 05:44AM -0700
Well, that is part of my original point. Offering ONLY certain pages
and portions of pages that can be edited prevents a client from
feeling over-empowersd.
However, once you deliver a site to a client, you have lost control.
If they want to add blinking text and squished up photos, who's to
stop them. Many times, I have wanted to show a site that I built only
to find that the client had ruined it. That's life.
Chris seems to be a lone voice, returning to hand coding. Most
commenters are advocating total CMS tool, like Joomla, WP, or Drupal.
- Jud <judsonvaughn@gmail.com> Nov 03 05:48AM -0700
Good points. I guess I worry about the loading penalty as well. Is
that old school thinking or still an issue?
- chris walker <customsitepro@gmail.com> Nov 03 08:58PM +0800
It is not so much the "loading penalty" from the search engines, it is the
bounce. I know people have itchy trigger fingers for the back button on the
browser. I am guilty of that. If I feel that a site is taking too long
loading I bounce rather than wait for it. I am really focusing on making my
new projects lean and mean, avoiding using databases altogether. I know
there are certain applications that I will need a database, but still
trying to avoid them.
Another thought regarding CMS base sites is that there are so many
backdoors and exploits. what is joomla 1.5 on now... version 24?? with an
HTML site, you can set the permissions on the files and consider yourself
safe from hacking attempts.

I have been away from web development for awhile. Now that I'm back, I
am noticing an appalling array of issues with IE. Yeah, of course,
IE6. But I code these nice looking sites on my Mac using Firefox and
Safari and tweaking them just like I want them in standard HTML and
CSS. Then I look at them in IE 7, 8 and 9.
Its discouraging. I remember problems but I don't remember the variety
of issues associated with the various releases of IE. Am I alone?
Jud
- Jud <judsonvaughn@gmail.com> Nov 03 05:36AM -0700
I have discovered www.saucelabs.com, which is very helpful. I lets you
virtually interact with IE, 6,7,8, and 9 through a Flash interface n
real time (not like the screen scrape alternatives). Its $30 a month
but worth it to avoid embarrassment with my client. I mean, even if I
had a Windows machine on premises, its not worth it to run four
environments just for testing.
- chris walker <customsitepro@gmail.com> Nov 03 08:37PM +0800
The problem is caused by javascript conflicts and html5 / CSS3. There are
workarounds, such as forcing IE to run in compatibility mode or you can
have browser detection and use different CSS sheets for each, which is a
lot of work. Have no fear, IE9 is here and it is pretty nice.. even runs as
a webkit browser.
Welcome back!

Try CodeLobster, it gives a kickass kickstart for a variety of CMSes and
frameworks including Wordpress and Joomla.
