Gee, I don't know. I had Codewarrior but never used it for PHP - never thought of it.

Regarding HomeSite, in my relatively short experience it crashed regularly, and if I used the formatting function either autoformat or manually, it would seriously break even regular HTML, even if it was HTML generated by the editor itself. PHP code usually disappeared entirely. I was actually using Cold Fusion Studio, which has the CF tag support built in.

I'd really like to know if newer versions of DreamWeaver handle PHP. DW seems to have a fairly steep 1st week learning curve, but after that looks like a very useful gadget for JavaScript and maybe Java applets, plus Flash etc.

I also wonder about the folks (name?) who used to make HotMetal, which was a very picky SGML-descended editor. They've now come out with an XML editor that just might work well with PHP, if the support for XML-process tagging is in there.
