Punkey Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Hi, I used to use Dreamweaver to add some html code to my pages. Recently it does not work with OsCommerce site. It does not connect. Hosts are claiming that it DW works with Oscommerce, but i tried many times and did not. I am not sure if something in OsCommerce has changed? or problem is somewhere else. any help is greatly appreciated. OH Boy!!! Not again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MrPhil Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 It's generally a bad idea to use page editors like DW to edit PHP code. Too many things can go wrong if you're not an expert at this sort of thing. Learn to use a real file editor such as ViM, Notepad++, etc. Even Notepad will do in a pinch. They won't add hidden control codes or BOMs that you're not expecting. You will also need an FTP client to upload (and sometimes download) files, such as FileZilla, unless you do minor file editing with your host's control panel editor.

♥John W Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Your DW not connecting is not because of OSC. You have something wrong in your ftp or sftp settings. I agree DW is not a great system for DW or at least not when i used it last. You might think about Netbeans which is a full IDE that supports PHP and Xdebug. It's also free. Netbeans.org I'm not really a dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorR Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I would also suggest you to use complete IDE net Netbeans which have a far better compatibility issue than DreamWeaver. DW is better for novice user and just for HTML coding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
