Now With Web 2.0!

This might be something very obvious to some people but I for one never took the time to look into it until I started working with Joomla 1.5. Their new system uses several .ini files for the language packs which is pretty cool if you ask me. It was because of this that I finally looked into editing different file types in Dreamweaver. It’s rather easy, go to Edit » Preferences (CTRL + U) and in the menu that pops up go to the ‘File Types / Editors‘ and add any file extensions to the end of the textbox ‘Open in code view:‘. So for example mine was…

.js .asa .css .cs .config .inc .txt .as .asc .asr .vb

and now it’s…

.js .asa .css .cs .config .inc .txt .as .asc .asr .vb .ini .htaccess

That’s it! You can add any other file types you want Dreamweaver to open from here too. No more notepad for htaccess edits!

    Hi. I also did that, and it works. But i can't manage to save the .ini file as UTF-8. And the special characters , like "á" or "ç" don't show up. Is there any trick for that?
