I went through the mill of IDE's and editors trying to find something I could use in the office without licence issues. At home I was using PHP Designer freebie version, but the licencing prevents me from using it at work.
A while back I used TextPad, and longer back, emacs, but not for PHP. eventually I settled on Eclipse only to find it regularly ate up all the available resources on my machine. I then moved onto NetBeans - much better and it also had drag & drop - strangely absent in Eclipse. I'm not a fan of the whole Java thing though - particularly the baggage that comes with it - 210MB for a text editor is a bad joke. Now I use PSPad. It has projects, incorporates FTP, incremental search etc. Best of all, it'll do mixed highlighting - very useful when you have a template that includes PHP, HTML and Javascript. All with an installed size of 10 meg. And it's a damn sight quicker than the Java Bloaters.
