Note: Collier did such a good job that Allaire hired him to write some all-new parsers for the HS 4.5.1 and 5.0 releases.

So, the parsers in HomeSite 4.5.x and 5.x are by Collier and are more current than the HTML+ parsers. You should use the parsers in HS 4.5.x or 5.x if you have it.

Use HTML+ only if you are running HomeSite 4.0x.
For other parsers and docs, see Asp4Hs: Add-On's: Syntax Coloring Parsers, Asp4Hs: TSyntaxMemo Docs and Sample Scripts and Creating Syntax Highlighting Parsers for HomeSite.

HTML+ 4.0 Beta
Advanced color coding for HomeSite 4.5

New Betas!

I have just completed the beta versions of HTML+4.0. The primary purpose of this new version was to rewrite the parser using some new techniques. In addition, I've made a few more additions to the ASP, JScript, VBScript, Java, and JavaScript keyword listings. I would encourage users to download and try these new parsers to make sure that everything is working as it should. I'm especially interested in knowing what (if any) things are missing.

Comments, Suggestions?

I'm always eager to hear ways to improveHTML+. Please let me know of anysuggestions or requests for parsers, especially including other languages that could be supported.

If you download it, please let me know. I'd love to hear from everyone.

Current Parser Version: 4.0 Beta
Requires: HomeSite 4.5

About the Parser
=======================================================================

HTML+ is a color coding parser for the editor component used
in Allaire HomeSite 4.5.

What's so great about HTML+:

-Support for HTML, JavaScript, Server-Side Includes and Style Sheets
-Syntax highlighting for all four languages 
-Total customizabilty of all aspects of the color coding 


What's New
=======================================================================

The parser has been rewritten from scratch using some new techniques
learned from David Brock (the author of TSyntaxMemo).  I have also
reworked a few things that bothered me before with methods in JS and
ASP.  Finally, I've made the script easier to add to and added support
for attribute highlighting.

Installation Instructions
=======================================================================

These instructions ask you to modify the Windows registry.  If you are
uncomfortable doing so, I would recommend not installing this parser.
Replace the * with the name of the parser you downloaded.

1. Extract the file '*.scc' from*.zip.

2. Copy the file '*.scc' in your HomeSite 4.5's Parsers
subdirectory with the new file.  NOTE:  By default, the Parsers
subdirectory can be found at:
C:\Program Files\Allaire\HomeSite 4.5\Parsers\

3. Use the Windows Registry Editor, regedit, to add a key named
'*' to the path:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allaire\HomeSite45\Parsers

4. Start HomeSite normally and use the Color Coding section of
HomeSite's Options dialog to customize the '*' scheme to
suit your needs.

5. For best results, make*your default color scheme.

About HTML+

One of the greatest flaws of HomeSite 4.0 was the lack of configurable, consistent, and complete color coding (try saying that five times fast :). WithHTML+, I tried to fix that flaw. HTML was written from scratch to provide the thorough ASP / HTML / JS / CSS support that many HomeSite users need.

Custom versions of HTML+ can be found below.

What's so great about HTML+:

Support for HTML, ASP (VBScript), JavaScript, and Style Sheets
Syntax highlighting for all four languages
Total customizabilty of all aspects of the color coding
ASP can be embeddedanywhere without breaking the rest of the coloring
Its free and it works

What's not so great about HTML+ 3.0:

A lot of the colors are not customizable:
HomeSite 4.0.1 only allows for a maximum of 24 editable styles.HTML+ uses 45 differerent styles. For this version, I've allowed you to customize all HTML elements and the delimiters and comments of ASP, JavaScript, and CSS. Other version can be released based on user feedback. With future versions of HomeSite, I hope this limit will be removed.
Not all HTML tags are recognized:
HTML+ only recognizes tags that are part of the HTML 4.0 specification. Browser-specific tags and tags from older versions of HTML are not recognized. However, depreciated tags are still supported.
No source code available:
A few people have asked me for the source forHTML+. Unfortuntately, I am not ready to give it out.HTML+has been through three rewrites and involves over 2000 lines. I will be happy to customize and updateHTML+ as requested, but will not give out the source.
