They do a ton. From printing:

Code: Select all

echo '<HR><PRE>'; print_r($); echo '</PRE>';
and leaving the cursor after the $ (I do this by pressing ALT-R) allowing me to print_r arrays/classes quickly

or adding a:

Code: Select all

if('xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' == $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']){
		
}
To a selection of code allowing me to only run code only if it's my IP address running it. (Good for making updates on the fly on a live server)

To Multiple sorting/ checking for duplicates...

To adding semicolon to the end of rows where a semicolon doesn't exist.

I could go on...

Really, one of my favorite features is being able to vertically select text.

I know the existing PHP plugins for Eclipse have a bunch of features like this. Perhaps they can be extended? I don't customise so I have not looked.

Yes, they can be customized.

I have used many different editors/ide's and Eclipse is one of my favorite mainly because I use it for more then just PHP programming.

I dropped everything I used to use for Eclipse for one simple reason.

xhtml, javascript, css, and php all in one place.

Macros, 1001 language, powerful & fast IDE, sortable tabs (yes!), etc. etc.

Let me just cough very quickly

Yeah, you have to pay, but a student-license is dirt-cheap (~30 US$). I've been using it for years and it has all I want and more from an editor.

Sortable tabs are a god-send.

Now running Eclipse 3.2 on Linux - smooth, like an absolute dream. :)

(also had a small headache from getting my head around the lack of "Project Settings" option from previous version(s), but all is good now :))

Hi guys,
did anyone else encounter this problem while trying to create a new project in PHP Eclipse?
I'm using Vista x64 and eclipse is... Build id: 20090619-0625

What a confusing site they have I am lost like a sheep in the woods... Where are the systems requirements ffs 8O

EDIT: Ok, nevermind, I wandered around and found an "All-in-One" PDT build so this one works for me now.
