Is there any light weight independent editor which won't require Eclipse?
If not then I'll go for the one you referred.
Thanks & Regards,

Re: Any good editor for JS?
sure ... it depends on your needs ... you could even try vim in case you just need syntax highlighting ... or the aptana ide ... which can be used as standalone or as an eclipse plugin ...
kind regards

Thanks :)
I'll download one of these.
As far as syntax highlighting is concerned, TextPad does that, but I wanted something which can give me suggestion what do I have to type.
Like if I type document., it could suggest me
anchors[ ]
forms[ ]
getElementById( ) etcetera.
Thanks & Regards

just had a look at the notepad++ homepage and it seems that you could extend it with plugins and then use ctrl+space for a kind of autocomplete/intellisense feature ...

Im a fan of jEdit. Its a Java based text editor that is geared towards all developers. It takes some getting used to, but after a while it can become very powerful.
There are hundreds of plug-ins for it to add features and support for all of the major programing languages so you only get the parts you need. I believe there is one for JS auto complete.

But again, would it provide suggestions (auto-complete) as you would type?
