Also, take a look at Php Designer. The Pro version is not free now but I've got the beta installer that was free and I liked it very much. I use DW, but of course that's not free. If you want the installer, PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send it to you.

You can get a PHP highlighter for text-pad so it's akin to an IDE, and it's only nag-ware.

eclipse is a pretty good IDE. slow though if your computer is not super fast (i used to use it for ruby / java stuff on a p4 2.4 with 512mb and it crawled). you couldjust use ultraedit or something.

Notepad ;).

But if you wanted a "full-featured" IDE, Eclipse always worked well for me as mentioned earlier (when I had to use it for Java development). But personally, I edit all of my PHP and Perl scripts in notepad as you may've read in the other thread, it has all that I really need.
