The WYSIWYG Editor was part of Zend Studio for Eclipse 6. However, it was removed from Zend Studio 7. This article explains how to install a basic WYSIWYG Editor plug-in for Zend Studio 7 (and up) - WST Web Page Editor.

The WST Web Page Editor plug-in does not support PHP code and works only with HTML files.

   • Zend Studio 10.x, 11.x - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno

   This will load the list of available plug-ins in the middle part of the dialog (loading the list may take some time, especially for older versions of Zend Studio).

3. To narrow down the available options, type "editor" in the filter field.
4. Under the Web, XML, and Java EE Development category select the Web Page Editor plug-in and click Next.

5. The installation mechanism will verify the availability and compatibility of the plug-in and display the result on the Install Details page of the Install dialog. Click Next.

6. On the Review Licenses page you need to agree to all licenses to continue the installation. If you agree to the licenses, select I accept the terms of the license agreements and click Finish.

7. The installation progress dialog will appear. Upon the completion of the installation you will be prompted to restart Zend Studio. Click Yes (this will trigger restart).
