I didn't intend any PHP bashing. I was just pointing out that PHP is quite a way behind in the IDE department. Apart from some half-hearted Eclipse plugins like PDT, nobody has stepped up to the plate. Certainly not in the way that Netbrains did for Java or MS did for .NET.

I've done my share of PHP development over the years, and have clients to this day that need their PHP sites maintained. And every time I need to touch those sites, I wish I had a tool powerful as, say, ColdFusion Studio 4.5, which came out in 2001.

If you can point out such a development environment for PHP, I'd be quite grateful.
