Taco HTML Edit 2.5 Adds Component Library

Today, Taco Software released Taco HTML Edit 2.5, the latest edition of its popular HTML and PHP editor. The Component Library, new in Taco HTML Edit 2.5, allows you to select one of 20 components, customize it, and insert it into an HTML document. From Slideshows to Pie Charts, from Accordion Controls to Scrollable Tables, the Component Library has the widgets that web designers have often wanted to add to web pages, but until now have been very encumbering. The Component Library revolutionizes how web designers create web pages.

Each component has many customization options, and you can see your customizations in a Live Preview while you are configuring the component. Don't like a change you make when customizing a component? Just use the Component Library's support for Undo and Redo. You can also preview your component in a web browser, using the same menu options available for previewing documents. Once you like the configuration of the component, just hit the "Insert" button to place the component in your web page. Any needed scripts, images, and style sheets are copied to a directory that you specify. All components are compatible with Safari 3+, Internet Explorer 7+, and Firefox 3+, with most components also supporting IE 6 and Firefox 2. Components are implemented using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Taco HTML Edit 2.5 also includes many other new features, including Snow Leopard compatibility, JavaScript code completion, preview and live preview for CSS and JavaScript documents, and live spell checking in Mac OS X 10.5+.

Taco HTML Edit 2 costs $24.95 USD per license, and can be downloaded from Taco Software's web site. A free, 30-day trial is available.
