The latest beta of
Netbeans 7 beta 2 is a huge step up from the beta 1 as it seemed to get hung up on me about every time I tried to use it. I have liked how it has made great strides to improve the
CSS editor to almost as good as the Dreamweaver editor. I use it mostly for
PHP coding and playing around with Concrete5 template ideas. I had been trying to use more HTML5 scripting and CSS3 and the 7b2 version takes huge steps in that direction. Now it still does not recognize text-shadow and background gradients but then again I am a little bleeding edge as I use Chrome 11 Dev version for most of my surfing. I have left
Firefox except for its firebug...as far as
Chrome extensions have come it is still Firefox that has a more complete set of tools that I use.
I have not been able to play with
JavaFx or just plain
Java in the new Netbeans IDE as I was a little worried with
Sun converted into
Oracle and Oracle dumping Ruby...I just get twitchy when projects get taken like that...normally does not end up good. As far as I am concerned the jury is still out on Oracle and Java.
