using ultra edit, slightly better than notepad,
its just another text editor
phpedit is good, but still quite buggy and sometime the language is all mix up,
like some error message not in english, although u install in english
i use dreamweaver mainly to make style sheet and choosing color

Notepad even though you have to have tremendous php scripting skills to use it practically...

I only use a text editor, and I don't have 'tremendous scripting skills'.

The only useful features that I can see an editor offering are syntax highlighting/reference. Seems a little bit pointless in the scheme of things.

I always hand-code so Notepad is the natural choice

Then I found EditPlus and have been using that since.

Notepad and Worpad are not good PHP editors, they don't even deserve the word "editor", often than not they insert invisible characters on your code document which can have a big impact on your scripts.

I myself use Dreamweaver's codeview to edit scripts.

WordPad and other Word Processors would do that. Notepad is not a processor - it's just a text editor. With Notepad, it's what you see is exactly what you get. It doesn't insert any 'invisible' characters into your documents.

WordPad, Microsoft Word, and all the others only do this for formatting reasons.

And I don't agree with copying other peoples scripts and putting them on your site, especially if you take the credit for them or don't acknowledge the original author. I think that you should write your own scripts, and if a ad
