Helps web developers create Cascading Style Sheets
TopStyle is a comprehensive software application that offers you a user-friendly workspace for
programming in CSS. It can be handled by any user who wants to have an easier time writing code.
The UI of the app looks professional yet intuitive. Besides the primary workspace, you can use
other panels, such as CSS Selectors, a Clip Library with ASP, JS, PHP and SQL elements, an
Inspector, together with a File and FTP Explorer.
On the bottom part of the screen, you can preview the design, check the style the messages,
"tidy" the code and view reports.
Furthermore, it is possible to open items from FTP or the web, save the workspace, select the
first or previous CSS rule, preview the design in an external web browser, export the style to
a sheet, check the spelling, manage layout, as well as import and export settings. These are
just some of TopStyle's available options.
The application runs on a low-to-moderate amount of CPU and system memory, has a good response
time to key strokes and mouse events, and contains a help file. We have not come across any
problems during our tests; the app did not hang, crash or display error dialogs. Thanks to its
user-friendly environment, programmers should be satisfied with the features provided by
TopStyle.

Here are some key features of "TopStyle":
· HTML, xHTML and CSS Editing in a Single Program: HTML attributes are categorized so you can
quickly see which are required, and it generates XHTML-compliant markup with a simple toggle.
· Easy Navigation Between Documents: Click an HTML class attribute to navigate to the definition
of that class in an external style sheet or click an anchor tag or CSS link to open the linked
file for editing. You can even click on an < img > tag to open the image file in your favorite
image editor.
· Element and Attribute Validation as You Type: All of the classes are defined in your style
blocks and external style sheets, so assigning a class to an HTML tag is a very simple task.
· Style Checker: Validate your style sheets against multiple browsers, flagging any invalid
properties or values it finds. You can also pass your style sheets directly to the W3C's CSS
Validation Service, so you can quickly check against the official CSS specifications.
· Style Upgrade: A quick, reliable way to replace all deprecated (outdated) HTML markup - including
the long-abused HTML < font > tag - with equivalent CSS.
· HTML Tidy Integration: Make the move to XHTML painless with the built-in Tidy configuration,
which converts HTML to XHTML with a single click!
· Site Reports: See at a glance where styles are used in your site. Find out where you've applied
style classes that aren't defined in any style sheets, or see what style classes you've defined
that aren't being used.
· Full Screen Preview: Split the preview between Internet Explorer and Mozilla for an immediate
look at browser differences. You can even change the !DOCTYPE of each preview panel on-the-fly
to see how different document type declarations affect your layout.
· Integration with W3C HTML Validation: Results of the validation are displayed within TopStyle,
with hyperlinked line numbers that synchronize with TopStyle's editor.
