PHP IDE recommendations
Ampa:
NetBeans looks nice... but no PHP :(
urlwolf:
yes, there's a php plugin. go to tools > plugins, and scroll down the list; there's php there. Never tried it though.
No netbeans python support that I could find. there's a debugger but the instructions to install it are outdated.
Tinjaw, have you tried both python and ruby?
Why do you like python better?
urlwolf:
But Wait! Before you answer... look at this:

written by the incredibly prolific hacker "why the lucky stiff".
I have laughed as hard as when I found "RMS is the new Chuck norris". I thought that was impossible :)
_why's existence makes me renew my faith in humanity. And make me want to learn the language too :)

No, I haven't tried Ruby. I have played with it a bit in an interactive online tutorial, but nothing beyond that.

I can't say one is better than the other, since I haven't used Ruby. It's more of the case that I love Python and have no interest in Ruby.

I am familiar with that book and have heard nothing short of raving reviews from anybody who has read it. In fact, when I was looking to get started with Python there was a lot of chatter on the Net about writing just such a book for Python.
