Re: easy to use php editor -- WEB400

It is very likely that you can get syntax files for Notepad++ from their site. I know you can for TextPad, which is my text editor of choice.

I did a little googling - there's a resources menu item on their site - lots of PHP related stuff.

Netbeans, though, is very easy to use. IIRC, it's been awhile.

Sorry I can't offer any other ideas. I've only ever used PHP Eclipse.
I've heard of the other ones that Scott and Kevin mentioned. I seem to
remember hearing good reviews about notebook++.

The problem that I'm having with Zend Studio is probably that it is
Eclipse based, which I find very confusing. Projects, perspectives, and
all of that stuff is completely foreign to me. All I want is to open a
PHP file, enter code, have some decent syntax checking, search and
replace, etc, and that's it.

Hi Larry,
I use PHPEclipse which is Eclipse for PHP Developers. I like it because it
is somewhat similar to IBM i Rational Developer For i in the sense that
both are powered by Eclipse.

Hi - I used to use Zend Studio to edit my PHP scripts, but I now find that
the new version (10.5) will no longer do the simple tasks it used to (like
syntax checking) unless I go through what appears to be a huge learning
curve to understand the new version. Has anybody else experienced this?
Can anyone recommend an alternative?
