1. free
2. quick (no java or like)
3. no wisywyg
4. can autocomplete attributes and styles
5. i write <script type="", autocomplete should show me list with text/javascript

I like Notepad++, but cant find smart autocomplete for it, as in visual studio.

Windows or Linux, no Mac please

Answer 1

Visual Web Developer is free and has all those features that visual studio does. It's not as lightweight as notepad++ but some of that is due to those features you mention.

Answer 2

Apple's Dashcode fits the bill.

While it's target is dashboard developers, it has all the HTML/CSS/JS autocomplete features you seek available.

Answer 3

vim and all its scripts which fit to your need easily...

I advise you to look at the wikipedia Comparison of HTML editors page where there is a bunch of html editor.

Answer 4

Well Dreamweaver fits the bill quite nicely, and I have always been pleased with its autocomplete support (you don't need to use the wysiwyg editor, and I never do). Free options are fewer, but I have been pleased with geany's performance in my own coding. You should also look into vim and emacs, as both have extensive sets of add-ons targeted at just what you need. I used to use notepad++ when on windows, but I am also curious as to why you wish to move away from it, as it performed well all the times I used it.
