I would like to my voice to this and further add that, while I love BBEdit,
it does not handle php with or without HTML very well.  I do a lot of Drupal
and have assigned both the .tpl.php and .module extensions to php. As with a
"pure" php script, the highlighting is flaky but actually is the least of my
issues:

1) no matter how I try I cannot get anything other than functions to fold.
 To wit: suppose you have a set of detailed foreach statements within which
you execute some logic (very common in Drupal as there are many nested
associative arrays to deal with).  Unlike other languages (such as
javascript), these cannot be folded and I must resort to manually selecting
and then folding.  Very inconvenient.

2) in php with HTML, it is really, really a pain that elements do not
fold-unfold as in HTML.  I have found it necessary to maintain 2 scripts, in
these cases to make sure that my HTML structures are balanced: 1 to debug in
a .html script (behaves as long as there is no php in there) and then the
"real script" where I have to paste the other script in.  Painful and prone
to errors.

I will try to find to the time to send my issue to BBEdit support with more
detail.

But if anyone has ideas, I would really appreciate it.
