Hello,
I've been mainly working in development tools such as Aptana Studio (Eclipse) along with a web browser with debug tools. I've Dreamweaver CS6 as part of a suite and it seems promising, but it seems to fall short in its handling of source code--namely being able to apply source formatting to pages that contain a mix of HTML and PHP. And it doesn't seem to have any formatting support for JavaScript?!
Am I just missing something or is this in fact missing? If so, it's sadly a deal-breaker. It's inefficient to read someone else's code without first filtering it through a formatter for readability.

Unfortunately, Dreamweaver does source formatting for HTML and CSS only. I agree that it would be useful for DW to format PHP and JavaScript as well. Add your voice to requests for this feature by filing a request through the official form at http://adobe.ly/DWBug.

There is an existing DM extension to accomplish formatting JavaScript here:

Cool. Just wish it worked in CC. Breaks saying it needs DW 10 or greater.
Hmmmm. Thanks though.

xZone9, Do you recall the name of that extension for formatting JavaScript? The link provided and extension ID is no longer active, but a search by extension title should work.
