depends on the project...

I definitely always have at least three:

1) local file I'm working on
2) remote file I'm working on
3) phpMyAdmin to hit the backside

sometimes I'll have 2 at phpMyAdmin if I'm working on two tables at one time.

I'm finding that I have typically 3-4 browsers and about 6-8 tabs.
(Browser Number & tabs)
1. Local Site Install, SourceForge.Net
2. Beta Site Install, Documnetation
3. Unit Test All
4. devNetwork, php.net

- PHP.net/devnet/phpmyadmin

Three browser tabs: App (as it is running), Webmin (for mysql and pgsql views), and a reference page (usually a php.net manual page).

One other window: Putty (ssh) into the development machine.

Beyond that, whatever I'm reading for fun.
