IDE is getting pretty old, you might look at SATA instead.

Yet again my recommendation is...

YUM-based Linuxes:
$ sudo yum install gedit
$ sudo yum install gedit-plugins

APT-based Linuxes:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gedit
$ sudo apt-get install gedit-plugins

Check off File Browser Pane in the Plugins tab inside Gedit, and then learn the other options available to you in Gedit.

Check off External Tools in the Plugins tab and then edit External Tools from the menus. Add a "PHP Lint" option and then set the command to "php -l". If you have PHP command-line installed in addition to PHP for your web server, then the "php -l" command will work. Set it to run against the "Current Document". Now you have a way to test for syntax errors on a given page.

Works like a charm and gets the job done. Very few people know about this for some reason.
