As far as I know php is a server language soo it's not possible to display that only at the server space, but with notepad it should be editable. For your second question the answer i guess so. In general the dynamic sites are built up from smaller parts in order to speed up the loading time. For instance the directory script i use this row: <?php include('./style/footer.php'); ?> make the footer display. Editing the template file should be enough.

ok thanks.

So... If I open the footer file and change in word pad then save as.. what should I save it as? I notice that my p.c. has updated all the files I downloaded from php files (that I could open in word pad) to wordpad files? does this matter if I upload the changed file back to my web space as a word file and not php? thanks

When I modify a php using total commander file firstly i press F5 to create a backup. After doing that i press F4 for editing. When i finish i press ctr+s for saving that. The software automatically ask whether i want to overwrite the file by uploading to the server. Choosing yes the new file is available at the server

I'd recommend this editor. It was written by a colleague of mine and it works great on all types of code.

Melkior, thanks for the tip. I found hungarian language file as well.

thanks to both of you for the info. :razz:

I actually managed to save as a php file in word pad and uploaded it to my web space and it seemed to be fine but I also downloaded your above programme which I will try and use, looks good.
