As in topic, what is your favourite editor used to edit HTML/CSS/PHP other files?

I prefer jEdit, it has many useful options and plugins i.e. PHP Parser smile.gif
If someone interested here are links:

http://www.jedit.org

and you need to download JRE because its written in Java, link:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Tell me about your favourite editors please smile.gif

Wordpad kicks notepad where it hurts.
I have Jedit for a while, but Java disgusts me, so I went back to good ol wordpad.

If I am doing simple, HTML, CSS, or JS I use an online HTML and javascript preview editor. Otherwise it is Notepad.

Although Notepad is fine, I use UltraEdit.

Basically you pay for what you get. And with Syntax colouring and being able to indent multiple lines, and a host of other things like temple macros. I don't know how I survived without it.

I programme in VFP and Delphi (both of which have very good IDE's - but I still ocassionally take the code into UltraEdit. It's searching is very good. Brings up a list of all instances - in context.

For anything in .NET, Visual Studio 2K5. For everything else, there's Boxer. Supports all the usual stuff. Customizable syntax highlighting, PERL-compatable regular expression find and replace, templates, different line enders, hex editing, fully customizable keyboard shortcut layout, blah blah blah. A great editor for those on the Win platform.

Here we would call it - what do you have against dusky s.

under sun os Scite.
under mac os ~anything biggrin.gif
under linux kword is always there
under windows notepad

I use other tools to handle big files, syntax color up, for printing or for doing specific thing, but thy are not the favorite ones. & editors that i have written for specific thing are always been my favorite, simply because i can make them to fit what i want.
