    Anyone know of a good website editor that does html/css/php?

    Does Dreamweaver offer all of this and who's the main supplier of Dreamweaver?

    Dreamweaver is one of the best, i use it sometimes when i decide to do some work.
    But php, xml, html, xhtml, etc i use WordPad & Notepad++

    Do you know if it does all three though or are you suggesting that it doesn't really do anything, but css?

    Dreamweaver automagically does HTML and CSS but i'm not sure about server-side scripting. The version I use (Dreamweaver 8) only goes with HTML/CSS.

    Regardless, you shouldn't rely on software to write your code for you. I suggest you learn properly (from books etc) and write your code yourself using Notepad++. That way you're streamlining your code and not running the risk of other tidbits been placed in your projects without you know.

    Try WeBuilder :)
    It is not that robust like Dreamweaver, but has everything you need - css/html/javascript autocomplete, php support, vb, ruby, sql, etc...

    I always use TextMate for all my coding needs, it have a very nice highlighting and plenty of bundles for the languages you use. Besides, there's nothing better than handmade code :) (I don't like generators at all so...)

    Yep. That's why I have never used Dreamweaver
