I second third fourth that! PHPEclipse is excellent. I am learning php
as well and I just got xampp and PHPEclipse about 19 hours back - i am
up and running since 16 hours!!

If you meticulously follow the instructions at
http://www.plog4u.org/index.php/Using_PHPEclipse,
life will be very easy very quickly - Just give proper attention to
installing the debugger and setting up PHPEclipse for debugging:
