::: There are many text editors with functions useful for HTML editing. So what sense does it make to single this one out? Moreover, what is including any text editor here over and above repeating information on [[Comparison of text editors]]? Perhaps an even better question: In what way, exactly, does GNU Emacs support these web technologies and image formats? -- [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] ([[User talk:Smjg|talk]]) 20:09, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

:: Good questions. I answer the easy part first, that about the images. It can show the images in the text buffer. It knows about image sizes. It also knows XHTML DTD and can validate it and do completion based on it. The latter is with the add-ons nXml/nXhtml. With nXhtml it knows about href links and can follow them, etc. Please see [[http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/nXhtml/doc/nxhtml.html]] or the corresponding file on Emacs Wiki.

:: There are also frame works for ruby, snippets for PHP etc. See [[http://emacswiki.org/]].

:: There is an extensive frame work for java (jdee) which some people are currently working on to get it in good shape again for the new Emacs version.

:: There are interesting new approaches for javascript, like the parsing editor [[http://code.google.com/p/js2-mode/]]. (There are other approaches to this too in CEDET for Emacs.)

:: Is not that enough? (There is more, of course.) <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Nopedia|Nopedia]] ([[User talk:Nopedia|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Nopedia|contribs]]) 23:11, 29 December 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
