HTML editor with Chinese / unicode support?


Recommended Posts

Posted

This is to all the webmasters out there - what HTML editor do you use? I've always used Notepad++ for editing English websites, but recently discovered it doesn't seem to have Unicode support (whenever I type in Chinese characters they come up as gibberish or question marks). Not sure of a way out of this. Any suggestions?

EmEditor - as an HTML editor it's merely very good, but it has fantastic Unicode support. (we also use it for most of our dictionary data file editing work)

Sorry I should have mentioned I'm looking for a freeware. Any other ideas? :P

Crimson Editor? I vary rarely use it now, but always did the job in the past.

Are you sure it's the editor's fault?

Did you make sure browser knows in what encoding your characters are stored in the file? Like this...

Oh wait I just figured out how to use Unicode in Notepad++. Believe it or not I actually found the answer in the Help documentation (that must be a world first). There's a massive button at the top called Encoding which drops down and gives you the options of ANSI, UTF-8, etc. Hurruh! Thanks everyone. :clap
