Hi Guys,
I voted for Notepad++.
the features -
1. It's free
2. Tag highlighting
3. keyword highlighting
4. code block collapse
5. High performance
However, it does not support -
1. window arrange (as in editplus. useful for multifile comparison)
2. window split (as the same is very useful for inpage comparison)

I thought Notepad++ added spit panes for the same file a few iterations ago?

Well I'm still learning HTML & CSS with PHP/MySQL.
So for now I'm sticking with Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 till I'm a little more novice in this languages.
I want to upgrade to the latest Adobe Dreamweaver hope I have enough cash saved up for it soon :]

I think I'm going to switch to NetBeans. Eclipse is becoming more and more of a joke with every release. It's gone from somewhat stable, to beta quality, to alpha quality with each release.

I don't use either for PHP, but for me, NetBeans has been head and shoulders above Eclipse for years now in almost every respect.

That's funny because NetBeans has been an utter pain in the ascot for me.There is always something that it just doesn't get right, from not drilling into parent class hierarchies to requiring an index.php file to create a project to not completing HTML tags wrapped around PHP code. It has failed in so many areas for me. It even has had a larger memory footprint recently, which I think if odd.
I am hoping that NetBeans 7 addresses some of these issues. I know it is in development right now and is available through the nightlies. Haven't used it yet. If it handles some of those things that Eclipse does then I might switch back.

i am a dreamweaver fan i like funtionality of the program and it is what i ma used too. I like the split screen view, probably the best feature.

Well I'm going to give NetBeans a go for a while and see how things work out. Eclipse has really been bugging me lately. It's mainly a bunch of minor issues added together + a few major issues. NetBeans does need to lay off the index requirement though. That's bothersome.

I personally wrote websites in notepad, but It's far better to use a tool like designer which give you the opportunity to see the code better and make also a debug.

I used CoffeeCup a long time ago. I have seen so many better pieces of software since then that I have never thought to go back to it.
