learn html and css. no matter the tool you use, your work will suffer if you
don't know what it's output is or how it is derived.
i like crimson editor. it doesn't have intellisense or code folding but it
does have vertical editing (multi-line modification), and as i'm terribly
fussy about coding standards, this is a deal-breaker for me.
eclispe is nice and has tons of other things besides vertical editing, but
damn if it ain't slow...hmmm...must be the fact it's written in java.
any tool you use is up to your preference and budget. zend probably has the
best php ide on the market...and they know it - as seen in the price tag.
most of the time though, i'd settle for notepad. ;^)
