Online help contents.   Animated flash presentation (186 KB).

The special effects are pre-made for your use, and DHTML Editor makes it easy to insert them into your Web pages automatically or manually.

1st JavaScript Editor allows you to input parameters and properties for the different special effects and then creates the HTML and JavaScript code with a click of a button! The HTML and JavaScript code can be then inserted into your document automatically! It's that simple!

  Note!!! The 1st JavaScript Editor "Demo" is the same for lite and
professional versions and this is 1st JavaScript Editor Pro "Demo".

  But if you buy the lite (not professional) version of
1st JavaScript Editor and enter received registration code,
the IntelliSense will not be available and you cannot use this feature.
 
  So, if you want to use all possibilities of 1st JavaScript Editor you
should buy the Pro (professional) version . 

Features that make JavaScript editing in 1st JavaScript Editor very flexible:

Built-in JavaScript Debugger will allow you run and debug the code, one line at a time, and each time, either adding extra code on the fly (without editing the original file), or checking how variables change in the run of the program. You can debug JavaScript files, Web pages which contain embedded scripts or even selected text (if it is JavaScript).

Unified color-coded syntax - for JavaScript, HTML, PHP, VBScript, CSS, ASP(Net). You can immediately identify comments, functions, object, methods and other elements. Color also helps you with potential problems, for example Alert('hi') and alert('hi') is not the same thing in JavaScript.

Ability to experiment - unlimited (customizable) Undo and Redo are only one click away.

Save time by loading your recent files automatically next time you run the program.

Single-click navigation between documents using document tabs.

Line numbers and word-wrap. Optionally, you can have line numbers and word-wrap displayed.

Highlighting matching curly braces. There are two ways to highlight:
by placing caret before brace
by placing mouse over curly brace
So you are able to highlight two pairs of matching curly braces at the same time!!!

Block Comments. You can comment a section of JavaScript code by selecting the code in the DHTML Editor and pressing CTRL+/ (slash). Each line of the selected code is prefixed with //.
Pressing CTRL+/ will add or remove the slashes, based on whether the first line of the code is prefixed with //.

Press [CTRL+/] to comment selected text



or uncomment selected text

Context-sensitive help : just press Shift + F1 to receive help on the function, method, property or any word under the cursor. Without this, you would have an impossible task of memorizing hundreds of functions you can call and the parameters you can pass to them.

Go to declaration:

Navigation to a declaration has been extended in First JavaScript Editor 3.6, and now (in addition to functions, variables, etc.) it is also supported for JavaScript labels.
Use the Ctrl + Click combination and this will immediately navigate you to the line of code where the label, function or variable is declared.

Bookmarking for easy and fast navigation.

Find functions and variables in your documents easily - they are automatically listed.
The application finds the function or variable, scrolls to it and marks it.
There are three ways to sort functions and variables: ascending, descending and none.

Code formatter. If you use some codes from external sources with different coding styles and standards you probably know how it is hard to read and maintain these codes.

To help you in this matter, 1st JavaScript Editor has an excellent source code formatter / beautifier, which allows you to customize and apply any style you want.
You can format embedded JavaScript code (any web file), pure JavaScript (JS file) or selected text (don't forget to select only JavaScript!).

Clipboard panel allows you to get all clipboard copy actions (up to 30).
You can define the limit from Preferences dialog.
To insert a clipboard content double-click or drag & drop to active window.

Usages highlighting.

If you are interested in usages of any JavaScript word in the current document, try the Ctrl + Shift + F11 shortcut. All usages will be highlighted.
Using F11 and Shift + F11 you can quickly navigate highlighted usages back and forth. Pressing ESC you can unhighlight highlighted usages. You can access all these actions via menu EDIT -- > USAGES.

Now you can use 1st JavaScript Editor with other HTML editors (f.e. Dreamweaver or Front Page) You simply open your document with both tools. Whenever you save the page in Dreamweaver, 1st JavaScript Editor proposes you to re-load it. This makes it easy to switch between visual editing and writing code.

Have your script error-free code in record time. Unless your code is very simple, it usually has typing and other errors. How to you find them and correct them? Without the right tools, this is a doubting task that can take up most of your time. It is not uncommon to spend 10% of time coding new features, and 90% chasing errors !

Click on the HTML Syntax Check button
It will check html syntax for current document and displays the result in the "Output window".

Click on the JavaScript Syntax Check button
It will check JavaScript syntax for current document and displays the result in the "Output window".

In addition, you can easily check "JavaScript islands" in your HTML code: just use the mouse to highlight the code, and click on JavaScript Syntax Check.

When you click on the Execute button (or press F2), the interpreter built into First JavaScript Editor runs the code and raises some messages or displays the result of the write function in the "Output window":

Calling any JavaScript functions either from document or from browser.


This feature allows you to:
     - Call any JavaScript function straight from First JavaScript Editor
     - Pass parameters to it, and
     - Observe the result in "Output window" or by getting messages.

Publish your colored code with ease.
When you publish your code on the Internet or elsewhere, it is a good idea to preserve the color coding and formatting : it makes your JavaScript code much easier to read and understand.
To this aim, use 1st JavaScript Editor to export your files:
As web pages, for placing them on the Internet, or as RTF files, for use in Microsoft Word or other text processors.

Previewing using multiple browsers: Now you can add or remove any (quantity of) browser located in your computer to "Browser List", to preview an HTML page from 1st JavaScript Editor.

Editing a source code outside First JavaScript Editor using multiple editors: Now you can add or remove any (quantity of) editors located in your computer to "Editors List", to edit code outside First JavaScript Editor.

 Note!!! The 1st JavaScript Editor "Demo" is the same for lite and
professional versions and this is 1st JavaScript Editor Pro "Demo".

  But if you buy the lite (not professional) version of
1st JavaScript Editor and enter received registration code,
the IntelliSense will not be available and you cannot use this feature.
 
  So, if you want to use all possibilities of 1st JavaScript Editor you
should buy the Pro (professional) version .
