I use Textedit for editing my PHP files all the time.  They are just text 
files, so they shouldn’t. Be showing HTML code.

Perhaps you can adjust your preferences in Textedit.

I would focus on the Display HTML files as HTML code instead of formatted text 
checked checkbox and turn off the magic quotes and whatnot to ensure that 
everything saves nicely.  I also turn off spellcheck as it is a pain when 
writing code.
