Adding php in dreamweaver and to test offline

JoeF1 · 6 Jun 2014 at 17:39

Hi guys.

Im struggling on the best way to ask this.

I am wanting to try and add this plugin into dreamweaver just to test the functionality if its something i could use.

The install instructions are to install it onto a webserver although i do not have access to one yet. What is the best way to install this to get it up and running offline?

I am using dreamweaver to make this site?

Note: I believe i need tinymce script added which is working.

Thanks.

ideal for testing anything offline, html, javascript, css, php and mysql.

However, I've never used it with Dreamweaver, not my cup of tea but it's incredibly simple to use compared to things like XAMMP and WAMP

GOOGLE wamp server. Tis all you need.

Run your own web server using XAMPP (Also Include PHPMyAdmin,MySQL) and use a real IDE, I'd stay away from DreamWeaver. Maybe take a look at PHPStorm.

You don't install that plugin into DW.

As above, you want to use some sort of offline tools like WAMP/XAMPP to setup the server on your local machine then you can look to sort out the plugin you want.

I can vouch for PHPStorm, I use it at work.

Like above, i've used PHPStorm and I would recommend.
