As for specific needs that NetBeans requires being an IDE for php, they make a special one just for php, see here: http://netbeans.org/downloads/index.html Find the one that fits your needs, like the one that covers only php and download it -- that's what I did. It's very easy to install and its learning curve is pretty easy. There are just some minor things that are not obvious, such as downloading a remote file to your local directory. You see, I use two different computers and have two accesses to the same server. Occasionally, I may change a file remotely and my second computer needs to be updated. I know this could be solved via some version scheme, but I don't want to make a big production out of it -- all I need to do is download a remote file, but I didn't see an easy way to do that. So, I searched for a couple of hours until I found someone said "Simply, right-click on the file locally and choose 'download' and you'll overwrite the file" -- that was simple enough. But I had to find out how to do it. These are the types of questions I have. I wanted to ask my questions on the NetBeans forums, but I am having trouble logging in. They seem to have a problem with my given ID, password, and email address and I haven't the time to straighten it all out -- I just want answers -- so I turned to this list.

Just in case you didn't spot it, there is a mailing list specifically for PHP development using netbeans that I have found very useful. You can sign up here: http://netbeans.org/community/lists/top.html#technologies Cheers, Mark
From: Mark Kelly on 30 May 2010 21:46 Hi Brandon. You sent your reply directly to me, instead of to the mailing list. Also I don't agree - netbeans is an excellent IDE and to call it a text editor is not doing it justice at all.

Indeed. I can't stand the thing myself - I was just being polite :) I use netbeans on Linux and Windows, so its cross-platform nature is quite important to me. I also appreciate the Subversion integration, which is very nicely done. Tedd: I'm no expert, but I'll chime in if I have any answers for you. Cheers, Mark
