I'm currently trying to learn Sublime Text 2, and so far I'm very impressed. But there are some things that I need compared to what I used for editor before (Microsoft Expression Web).
When I had a HTML file and had a class for a div or something. Then I wrote fx:
<div class="classname"></div>
Then I could CTRL + click on the classname, and it would instantly take me to the CSS file where this class was located, and to the line where it was, and I was able to edit it right away, instead of going into the CSS file and make a search.
Is this possible in Sublime Text 2 as well, or...?
Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, there is no built in feature that does what you require.
But luckily there is a dev who created a plug-in, that does exactly what you want.
Take a look here: Goto CSS Declaration
In addition to the "Goto CSS Declaration" plug-in, that No Reply linked to in their answer, you can press ctrl+P, which let's you jump around in files.

Generally new to web design and watching some tutorials on creating some backend for a project, getting really tired of writing out the manually, I see youtubers do .classname and then the class with the div appears, but for some reason it isn't working for me? Any help would be appreciated.
Also, would it be easier to switch to Sublime, my buddies think that it is the way to go.
Cheers.
Go to settings
Go to emmet under the Extensions section.
Click on 'Edit in settings.json'.
Write the following inside the 'emmet.includeLanguages' tag. Otherwise, paste the whole statement.
"emmet.includeLanguages": { "javascript":"javascriptreact" }
Save the settings.json file.
Those videos are likely using emmet. VS Code includes built-in support for emmet completions in html files. For example, typing .classname in an html file will trigger an emmet suggestion that expands to <div class="classname"></div> when you accept it
If you do not see this working:
Make sure the document is in the html language mode
Try manually triggering suggestions after .classname using ctrl+space
Make sure you have not disabled Emmet
I tried everything written in the answers but it wouldnt work, I had to do the following;
go to settings in the bottom left, search for 'emmet'
scroll down to and tick:
'Trigger expansions on Tab'
then it works by typing .divClassName + Tab
Check out this Cheat Sheet for VSC:
Cheat sheet for VSC
Ensure that VScode recognises your file as HTML5 or CSS file. In my case I had emmet enabled, but while I could get emmet abbreviation in a CSS file, they wouldn't work in an HTML file. The issue was that I also had Django template extension installed and the file had Django template code as well, hence VScode considered the file as Django template file, not HTML. You can check this the status bar at the bottom of VScode. Once I changed the file from Django template to HTML by clicking on Django Template in the VScode status bar, emmet started working.
The above answers didn't help me because VS code already came with Emmet installed, but I was missing the information on how to actually trigger it.
For an html element
Type the element e.g. div, h1, whatever, then press tab to complete it
For a class
Type the class name beginning with a dot then press tab to complete it.
For example type .myclass and hit tab and you'll get <div class="myclass"></div>
Note: if your class has spaces, use a dot in place of the space (e.g. for "my great class", you should type ".my.great.class" and hit tab)

Tried mentioned thing from emmet vs code document
go-to .vscode >> settings.json
add line "emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true
it worked for me for reference : Emmet in visual studio code
I started using the Atom Code editor recently. During my last project, I installed a couple of tools to make my coding more interactive.
One of the features added color to my code which makes it easier to read.
However, I started a new project today and the code is all white on a dark background. How do I color my code?
I have attached two screenshots of the colored code and the non colored code just to illustrate what I mean but its pretty straightforward.
Atom might not be recognizing the syntax of your code immediately. Check the bottom right corner of the screen to make sure atom has the correct language/file extension selected. You can manually select this if atom doesn't do it automatically. You might also need to install some new packages if atom isn't recognizing your code.
Use ctrl+shift+l to open the language selector, and select the auto-detect option.
I had the same problem. Try switching to HTML(Go) in the bottom right corner. It's between UTF-8 and Github.
Why isn't anybody mentioning the file extension?
Your "Project Greg.html" is HTML.
But "Random Quote Machine" has NO extension.
This is why the syntax isn't showing.
The current version of Atom I'm running as of Oct 2018 seems to identify code by tags. So even if I select HTML manually, unless the file has <html> tag, it still doesn't mark it as HTML. I just add redundant commented out <!-- <html> --> tag in the beginning of the file and it does the trick.
You may need to install a new package for Atom. You can find different language packages for Atom here: https://atom.io/packages
For example, for React.js, install the react package.
In your terminal, type this command: apm install react
More info for react packages:
https://atom.io/packages/react
https://orktes.github.io/atom-react/
Check the bottom right corner of the screen to make sure atom has the correct language/file extension selected
If your file has extension HTML or ejs (.html, .ejs) language-ejs package can 't recognize those file.In the bottom right corner of the screen, change the HTML to ejs or javascript, then the atom can recognize that the code your write is parts of ejs. NOte, you need to install language -ejs package first.
Follow the steps:-
File->Settings
Select 'Core' from left pane.
Change color profile to "Use sRGB color profile".
Restart 'Atom'.
Make sure the beginning identifies the file as a html document. I had this problem and just added <!DOCTYPE html> as the very first line and it worked.
Maybe this will helps for someone, but if you tab once this line: <!DOCTYPE html> and it will show coloured HTML code
If the langage set is already the right one,and the code stays grey unless you directly edit it, just try setting another langage then switch back. It worked for me after Atom refused to color an entire copy-pasted HTML page.
I am a very newbie but wanna share what worked for me. Please don't judge me strictly.
Since I work only in Python, it is very convenient to change the grammar to Python every time. How to make it automatic:
File->Settings (or use Ctrl+Comma)
Click Open config folder
Click on styles.less
After all the code, write exactly this source.python {
}
Save
Restart Atom.
You're all set.
Hope this was helpful, couldn't find this solution elsewhere.
The !DOCTYPE html did not change the color for me but in the bottom right is :
CRLF UTF-8 HTML GitHub Git(0) menu options. I selected HTML and in the popup window selected AUTO. The color returned instantly.
With the basic Sublime Text 2 build, I am getting CSS value autocompletion only when I type the first letter of the value, as seen in the image below.
However, I've been watching the Tuts HTML+CSS web tutorials (here is an example video), and his Sublime Text build shows all possible CSS for a given attribute. Below is a screenshot from the linked example video.
My question is what setting or package allows for the display of all possible CSS values for a given attribute?
No additional packages or specific settings were needed to solve this issue. The Ctrl/Cmd+Space keyboard shortcut natively displays all possible completions.
Try different plugins through Package Control.
Specifically trying these may work for you:
CSS Completions
Emmet CSS Snippets
CSS Extended Completions (requires ctrl/cmd + space)
There is no package needed in Sublime Text 2 to display all possible completions, e.g. all possible values for a CSS property, but LaceLafontaine's answer is no longer current. Cmd+Space doesn't work on Macs, partially because it's a shortcut for a spotlight search.
Currently the shortcut to display the completions in OSX is Ctrl+Space. I believe it's the same for both Mac and PC. The issue was discussed here: https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2699

For me it worked when I config using this:
"auto_complete_triggers":
[
{
"characters": ": ",
"selector": "source.css",
},
],
And then you use Space as trigger.
There is an additional space before every value, but Minify or HTML-CSS-JS Prettify will delete all these spaces
I am trying to modify a CSS file using Sublime Text 2, however, all the code is presented in one linebreaks with no line break whatsoever.
What can I do to change that into readable code?
Try using Code Beautifier. You input the code and it formats it for you. There are many other sites like this one so check around and see which one you like best.
If you want to use a Sublime Text plugin, try CSS Format by mutian.
EDIT: As said by Imran Bughio, CSS Beautify is another site like Code Beautifier.
EDIT 2: As noted by Beginner, CSSLisible is another option.
Go to this site CSSLISIBLE. paste your css code and click Clean this code button..
Can anyone recommend a module or other Drupal add-on that can be used to format code nicely like I see on a lot of blogs and websites? Ideally something that would integrate with CKeditor, but that's not critical, I can make do with HTML tags if need be. Thanks.
The two most popular Drupal modules seem to be Code Filter and GeSHi Filter for syntax highlighting. For getting GeSHi to work with CKeditor, check out the WYSIWYG - GeSHi bridge module.
Well, there's http://alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighlighter/ which is javascript. It gets applied at view time.
To see your code highlighted in the actual editor, you're probably going to have to work a bit harder. If it were me, I'd start with http://ace.ajax.org/ , which is an editor that grew out of Mozilla's constantly-renamed in-browser IDE project.
Maybe it's to much but check this
http://drupal.org/project/grammar_parser_ui
Quick follow up: as per this post, the WYSIWYG-GeSHi bridge development has been put on hold because of some problems integrating GeSHi buttons into CKeditor's toolbar (they make all the other buttons disappear). I can confirm that this is the case.
However, if I use GeSHi tags in HTML source, they do format things correctly. The really key thing left out of the GeSHi module documentation is that you need to enable it as an input format in Drupal.
Next I'm going to try this method for integrating GeSHi formatting directly into CKeditor without using the WISYWIG module or any bridges. Thanks again for everyone's help.
There's the Prettify module that implements Google Code Prettify as JS library. It works out of the box but it appears to duplicate the pre tags, that is, one pre tag appears as container for the other one:
<pre class="prettyprint prettyprinted">
<pre class="prettyprint">
<code>
.myClass {
<br>
float: left;
<br>
}
</code>
</pre>
</pre>
That's only annoying because you can't really style the pre tag if there's two of them because all your styles are duplicated leading to double margins, padding, borders. etc.
Still, it works out of the box if you can deal with using the default styles provided with the module, and there are a number of them, i.e. Google Code, Stackoverflow etc.enter link description here
