    I use PHPDesigner . It's really cool, with syntax highlighting for PHP as
    well as other languages. It's got options like running PHP code and
    connecting to web server if you ca configure it. As for a newbie, it's
    support for PHP commands/functions is awesome. Try it out.

        I think you will find a long list. Syntax Highlighting is a very nice
        feature, auto indentation, etc.

        I use Linux so am using many KDE tools such as the Quanta web
        development environment which has the Kate Editor embedded. Very nice.

              I use Eclipse with PHP extensions.

              The Eclipse Foundation hosts 400+ open source projects with vendor-neutral governance, enabling global collaboration in automotive, IoT, cloud, and emerging …

              Zend is a trusted source for PHP development platforms, including secure runtimes, PHP monitoring tools & full PHP support for developers worldwide.


              Open source and free. It does have syntax highlighting and a ton of
              other features.

              I also sometimes use notepad for quick edits.

                I realize that asking which IDE is best is usually very subjective and
                usually ends up as a Holy IDE war response. So here is my battle report.

                The PHP Designer you are talking about is not the current version of PHP
                Designer. The newest version was just released last week. It is called
                'PHP Designer 2007'. This new release comes in two flavors: a free one
                and a commercial one. The commercial one is actually has the same
                functionality of the last free version. Now you will have to pay $69.00
                or €55 EUR. I can not recomand this IDE anymore unless you have the 'PHP
                Designer 2006 Beta' release. That said it still does not have an
                interactive debugger.

                As a Java programmer I been using Eclipse for the last two and a half
                years.. Now that I am learning PHP it was natural for me to use the
                Eclipse PHP plugin. It is a new Eclipse project but the Zend support
                people are really putting together a nice plugin.

                I also use PHPEdit. I was able to get a free copy for personal use.
                This is a nice IDE but the new versions seems to run slower than the
                prior release.

                So, no matter what answers you get for your question. You will have to
                test out the IDE's yourself to see which one meets you own needs..

                    I use emacs; it has highlighting for all the languages I use (plus many,
                    many more), and it has a newsreader in it, so I don't even have to leave
                    my editor to post.

                      Test them all yourself ;) And get the one that makes you the most
                      productive... Imho all decent editors are already half ide's these days
                      that give you syntax highlighting, formatting, auto completion,
                      intellisense, ...

                      A good place to start: <http://www.wiki.cc/php/Editors/>

                      I've been using UltraEdit, Eclipse (tried phpeclipse and trustudio plugins),
                      (And a whole lot of others that i'm not going to mention...)

                      Today i use gvim everywhere (e-mail, usenet, scripting, ...).

                        I use UltraEdit under Windows and Vim and Zend Studio on OS X.
                        UltraEdit and Vim rock! I'm fairly new to Zend but I like it so far.

                            I use Dreamweaver also. It can make you see PHP code and HTML frame
                            simultaneously.

                              I used exclusively Notepad++ on Windows, Kate and elvis on Linux. Now I
                              use Eclipse more and more on both platforms - but lightweight editors
                              are still the best for some things.
