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..
