I am developing an Active Server Page Web application using Visual interdev. I would like to use TP to edit my code. I would like to do the following:
- have TextPad open all the files in my project at once
- highlight the keywords similar to the way interdev does
Thanks

Re: TP as ASP editor
Create a document class for ASP, get an ASP.syn file from the Add-ons - Page here.
Open all your files, Save Workspace.
Next time, open the Workspace you saved, and all the files will be opened again

Re: TP as ASP editor
There are a couple caveats to this however. And y'all can correct me if im wrong
1) I have not found a syntax file that supports all 3: ASP, Javascript, and HTML
2) You will not get Intellisense that Interdev gives

Re: TP as ASP editor
I see there are 3 .syn file on this site. Which one is better? I do not need it so support HTML since I dynamically create it with response.write?
I'm not worried about intellisense. Thanks for the answers.

Re: TP as ASP editor
Keep in mind that tons of response.write's are quite a bit slower than it would be to simply use HTML.
Instead of:
Do until Rst.EOF
Response.Write("<td>Some Table Item:" & SomeVariable & " More Stuff</td>")
rst.MoveNext
Loop
Use:
Do until Rst.EOF
%><td>Some Table Item:<%=SomeVariable%> More Stuff</td>
<%rst.MoveNext
Loop
Just a tip...
