CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Web developers will appreciate the solid feature set and smart design of this PHP development environment. And they'll love the price: free. For novices, PHP Designer offers tag autocompletion, code lookup, and automatic conversion to PHP. For more experienced programmers, there's XHTML support, PHP integration, and the ability to verify code in several languages, including PHP, Java, and C#. Of course, the program also supports standard features such as text color-coding and autobracketing. And as a nice bonus, it comes with 20 attractive skins. You'll probably want to remove some toolbars from the screen, because otherwise the interface looks rather overloaded. But the most serious disadvantage is the complete lack of help, except for links to docs on PHP and HTML. We recommend PHP Designer for experienced programmers who are looking for a stable, professional-quality freeware tool and don't mind a bit of experimentation to learn how to use it.Publisher's description
From MPSoftware :phpDesigner 2008 is today's PHP IDE that help you boost the process of editing, analyzing, debugging and publishing applications and websites powered by PHP and other Web languages. Work with object-oriented (OOP) programming in PHP5, nested code completion and have code tip displayed as you type so you do not need to look into documentation to see classes and function attributes. Work with projects and integrate any PHP framework into your project and access all your files, classes, functions, interfaces, variables and constants declared in your project on the fly. Debugging has newer been easier with the new integration of Xdebug. Analyze your code step by step using breakpoints, watches, evaluations etc. Find bottlenecks in your code or see which parts of your code are slow and could use a speed boost with the profiler support. The philosophy behind is to make it, enjoyable to use for hours and hours through an easy-to-use-, intuitive- and customizable interface.
