Does it not give u troubles? Everytime I want to come back and edit my code, like the next day, it's gone. The whole Notepad document is gone. Why??? Is anyone experiencing this?

I do save as html. Also, sometimes if I right-click on the File menu, or whatever, after a while...the whole thing closes. Weird!! I need help. I want to have it on my desktop always, so I can come back and add/edit.

I use Microsoft Expression to help me out. Some people use Notepad. It is very basic but it sounds like you might be having some computer problems.

I always use notepad or an WYSIWYG editor, I have seen stings of code or coordinates for an image disapear from one to the other, but i haven't ever had an entire, document disappear.

I agree with Corey, it sounds like you are having some computer problems, check your recycle bin and try saving your files to an external souce, such as an USB Flash Drive, or Floppy, or CD.

I use Notepad or Notepad++ whichever one I feel like, and I like N++ quite a bit.
Of course I mainly just got it because it is free, but if you want to get a quality multiple purpose tool, I hear Expression Web is one of the best.
Dreamweaver and Frontpage are also popular.

It all depends on what you need. :)

I usually use notepad. The only time I've used Dreamweaver was to configure the frames of my website.

I use gedit or vim mainly. I use vimn mainly as I work from the command line or remote *nix servers.

What is gedit?

gedit is the official text editor of the GNOME desktop environment.

What Is Vim?

Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems.

Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing configuration files.
