I wasn’t aware this plugin even existed for Notepad++! This is awesome, I have been using another application altogether to compare side by side files for errors / changes while I code. The cool thing is that it also works with all of the languages that Notepad++ supports and works with also. My partner Greg and I both use Notepad++ for simple inline code editing, it’s fast and very clean. My dream for the Notepad++ project is for them to throw a WYSWYG visual editor onto it (I would completely uninstall and burn my Frontpage / Expression DVD’s).

I have known about this library for a little while now but haven’t ever really taken the time to get my mind around it. My partner Greg and I were looking at some projects today that were built using MODx and noticed some pretty cool behaviors on different pages. We started looking a little deeper and found that it was jQuery. In the past I have always used a WYSIWYG desktop program to build behaviors (often quite a few lines of unintelligible code) to get similar effects but even then the movements weren’t near as fluid and smooth as what I saw today. I think that I am going to install this library on one of my test boxes and give it a test drive. 
My partner Greg posted an entry on his blog the other day talking about SEO friendly URL’s and how MODx works to help you have an extremely search engine friendly website using .htaccess. This is just one of the many upsides to using MODx PHP Framework, there are quite a few others that I am sure he and I will go into as we explore this framework a little deeper, here’s his post:
