    I used to have a css editor witch highlighted all the color codes within any css file eith the color that code responded to.

    If anyone knows where i can find this or something simler please post or inbox me.

    I only need it for fast changing of color themes so i am not too bothered about other features fust for it to highlight codes to there corresponding colors

    Many thanks

    you would think after 7 years of building websites i would know the codes i would need :)

    Notepad ++ is perfectly enough for CSS editing for me ;) I mainly use this because of auto-suggesting so I dont need to write long attributes..

    Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions Has GREAT css support, there is also a bunch on Sourceforge if you interested in something a little lighter

    Thanks for telling, I was also looking for css tool other than dreamweaver.

    Dreamweaver is so expensive,(Dreamweaver 10 cost $400).

    There was something I heard of a little while back it was something like JustStyle CSS Edit or Editor. You can look it up if you want but I'm unsure if it has the exact features that you are looking for, I've only heard about it, not personally used it. Of course there is always Dreamweaver too.

    I use firebug as my core CSS editor, it make my life easier to fix those CSS bug. The most important is free and handy, it even perform better than Dreamweaver for this particular CSS area

    Its not an editor, but it helps us easily apply styles, and see it instantly. Also it does makes suggestions.... Also you can copy the css rules after editing..... It is handy for fast development ;)

    Yes, firebug is not an editor. If firebug can deliver such editing function, why we still need a heavy editor?
