Anybody know of any free web-coding editors for HTML/CSS/PHP? (Not Notepad please! :d)

Thanks in advance!

XEmacs with windows-esque shortcut.

You can use the free trial version of Macromedia MX if it's a one-time thing.

That would be Dreamweaver MX. Macromedia is a brand, not a product.

I like Programmer's Notepad.

I replaced my notepad.exe with NotePad2.

It has syntax highlighting, and some other cool features.

Does syntax highlighting mean that when you type in code it will like make a menu with various choices? Like Dreamweaver, I want something close to DW that is free, can't buy DW for a while since I am buying new Mac stuff.

Where do I get this Emacs thing?

I think usually when someone talks about syntax coloring, they're meaning that the program colors the words (characters, too) when they're recognized to have special meaning. For example, 'void', 'while', 'for', 'select' all could be colored differently, '<a>', '<br>', and etc could also be colored differently.

Gnu Emacs should be available from www.gnu.org somewhere.

That feature is called "code completion" -- it's much harder to find free software that does it.

Vim supports some completion, though it isn't in a pop-up menu (which would be ugly). Look for ^N and ^P in insert mode. IIRC, there's a plugin that extends the completion support, but I've never tried it.
