    ATM, I just use Dreamweaver so I can upload my files most easily, and because it does code-colouring; but I have been wondering if I'd be better off using an Eclipse plugin or something.
    (I should probably install Apache too, so I don't have to upload files to test!)

    What do you use?

    Zend Studio. By the same people who 'do' php and is available for Windows, Linux and Mac.

    (and added to the poll for good measure)

    Dreamweaver here :) I like the way your Fireworks designs go straight into it without any problems.

    Notepad. Not providing a link. If you can't find it... well... let's hope you can.

    Of course, my PHP is VERY basic. But it makes the page work how I need. I do all my web coding in notepad though, be it html, php, js, css/related or... well that's all I really do. Most of my original work is plain HTML, a lot of the rest is just tweaking free code (phpbb, menu scripts). I think my only original php work is just using the page.php?thing=somethingelse to load somethingelse.txt into the page. But like I said, it gets the job done.

    I should get something that does coloring of sorts though. I did all my old C work with Dev-C++ which colorcodes to a limited extent, but as soon as I save as something other than c/cpp/h etc, it stops coloring :(

    editplus 2 but i am not a fan of PHP since it takes longer to do than plain good old XHTML 1.0 strict + CSS + javascript. err i am lazy :(

    I'm just starting to do more advanced PHP, including more DB interaction, and need something more robust and up to date than my current version of Dreamweaver.

    Thanks for the replies everyone - I will be looking at those this morning.

    always use scite tbh!
    I wrote my 3rd year project (almost 8k lines of code) in it without a hitch!

    I just like to have something light which can do colour coding, most other features that other progs advertise arnt really of much interest to me!

    I use metapad on windows, and gedit on Linux. gedit is awesome: it can colour-code anything.

    I only use it when I'm SSH'ed into a server and there isn't much choice. However most of the ~30 other developers at work use vi all day, every day...
