Getting started

Well, phpbuilder.com has a good getting started tutorial. Google should find others for you as well.

As for compilers, no, you don't need one. You DO need php installed on the machine you are doing development on. If it's web development, you will also neead a server on that development machine.

Editors? Well, I'm not too sure, but I'd say notetab or edit+ . Plus are good and should get you to the church on time.
