What IDE do you use for PHP development?

I've been using Eclipse for a while.

Some of my pages now incorporate jQuery in addition to PHP. Are there any IDEs that support both PHP and jQuery/javascript at the same time?

What's your favorite IDE?

Re: PHP web application deployment strategy

I recommend that you get hold of Matt Zandstra's book 'PHP Objects, Patterns and Practice'. Lots of good stuff in there including: Chapter 19 - 'Automated Build with Phing'.

Re: Sorting an XML list...

Here is my solution. It's not very elegant but it works! <?php $myXml = ' <training> <course> <startdate>2011-29-02</startdate> <displaydate>29th February - 5th March</displaydate> <name>CCR Normoxic</name> <location>Malta</location> </course> <course> <startdate>2011-29-04</startdate> <displaydate>...

Re: Compiled PHP? GUI?

I don't get you.

Isn't HTML is the natural GUI for PHP? Aren't there WYSIWYG design tools for HTML? I don't use any though as I prefer to hand code the presentation layer pages to keep them simple.

Re: Use a multiple functions or just one with more arguments

An alternative approach would be to consider an interface: <?php interface Expense { public function getCost(); } class fees implements Expense { public function getCost() { // Code to calculate fees goes here. $fees = 100; return $fees; } } class shipping implements Expense { public function getCos...

Well I have a design question and I like some input fr...
