I rather like PHP Designer 2005

http://www.mpsoftware.dk/phpdesigner.php

It's easy to use, fast and has quite a few options and no bugs that I've come across at least.

Hi all :)

I'm the proud coder in Zend Studio, I got to know it in school where we program in it each day. But I also perfer Dreamweaver (Not its PHP functions though, PHP Designer 2005, Rapid PHP 2005 and last but not least the danish free ware editor TSW, it's really a great program, it can be downloaded from here http://www.tsware.net/. Its worth a shot if you like a nice editor :)

I use the following tools:

1st Page 2006 for tables (because I'm lazy).
Maguma Studio for PHP coding. Occasionally I'll use PHP Expert Editor and Crimson Editor, but very rarely. Maguma gives me syntax highlighting and tells me what parameters built-in functions as well as functions in directly included files have, as well as giving me all the functions/vars in a class, etc. All I need, zero clutter, zero bloatedness.

I think it would be a good idea if the survey was reset with those others that people have suggested added. Because currently, "Other" is winning, and that's a bit crap really.

i just normally use notepad... i've been using it to code since a long time ago, and since my computer is really slow, i can't be bothered opening dreamweaver unless i'm doing a webpage heavy on layout.

Zend Studio, 4.2. Feature rich, easy to use "out of the box". It is a little expensive and quite the resource hog, but worth it to me.

I use Notepad++ for php editing.
It's available at http://notepadplus.sourceforge.net

I would like to eventually use an IDE type PHP editor, but I'm not rich =)

I have to say, i much prefer Zend Studio, i started off with Dreamweaver 4 but after trying the zend trial i was hooked.

Granted there are features that i probably won't use but its nice to know they are there should i ever need them.

cheers,

Barry,
