I use Eclipse (www.eclipse.org) which has very cool support for
refactoring: I use Struts so I do more
bean coding than HTML editing and I do need support for refactoring
sometimes.
Also it has wonderful integration with Junit: I can actually test my
servlets from the IDE.
The Tomcat plugin will even edit your server.xml file (if you allow
that) and the context for your app.

The downside is that it uses huge amounts of memory (need at least
256MB) and has a fairly steep learning curve at the beginning. No
support for ssh...
And if you want to be able to start and stop Tomcat from the IDE Tomcat
must be on localhost.

If you do all of your stuff inside jsps (no servlets) then DreamWeaver
MX could be a good pick too.
