    I personally use Nusphere PhpED, but it isn't free.

    PHP isn't exactly something you have a WYSIWYG editor for. It's a full server-side (scripting) language and has nothing to do with the layout of an HTML page (I'm not saying it can't generate HTML to adjust the layout, but that it is the backbone and not the skin so to speak). For a full IDE, I recommend Zend Studio, but it's a bit pricey if you're just a hobbyist. Otherwise, I recommend any program with syntax highlighting, a local testing server, and firefox.

    I personally use macromedia dreamweaver but it isn't a WYSIWYG editor i use this cause it does syntax coloring and is a good editor in general for css, htm, java, and javascript editing. for other editing it is good for WYSIWYG.

    I would recommend using phpDesigner07 Personal. mpsoftware.dk/

    It is a great open source editor, and you wouldn't catch me using anything else but it.

    If you don't like it, there is another one called Dev-PHP, it is a good IDE. I used it for a while. It just doesn't have as many features as phpDesigner.

    A simple program called Notepad 2. Everything you need (line numbering, syntax highlighting for many, many, many languages, "bulk" actions, visual tabbing, etc.) and nothing you don't.

    And it's free. :)
