Php Ide?

Are there any good php IDE's?

Preferably with syntax coding type stuff. Like interdev, except it doesn't need the WYSIWYG stuff.

thanks

anyone? does everyone just use notepad?

yes I use notepad, or ConText which is a notepad program but has color coding.

there is one called php coder, I used it once but never used it a couple of times. never really got into it. also hooks up to apache so you can see the results in you browser.

wow, sounds cool. i'll look into it.

here is the link, i found it, for anyone interested: http://www.phpide.de/

I use wordpad or notepage

Wordpad has beter tab spacing ;)

ActiveState's Komodo color codes it and can debug (haven't tried getting that to work yet). Also, Allaire Homesite (now Macromedia Homesite, I think) will at least color code PHP.

do you know if either of those, or any php IDE has code insight?

like VB?

nope

grrrr....

Code insight is my favorite thing in the world. Hmmmm...*gets idea for app* :)

you will get used to the names of the functions soon enough ;)

Homesite has code insight for HTML, but not PHP.

Komodo I'm not sure as I don't have PHP installed on my workstation, just my test server. It has weird code insight for Perl -- it only has insight into functions you already type in -- like if you have XML DOM object $xml, you maunally type $xml->getElementsByTagName, then the next time you type $xml->, the code insight kicks in with just that one function.

I am starting to like the PHP coder a lot, and it has a cool preview thing. i guess i can live without code insight for a while, and just stick with good ole' memorization :)

I miss the insight in C++ :rolleyes:

Although it does have a neat one for the API

vc++ has insight, so does borland.

kk

hmmph
