    This is without a doubt my favorite IDE. I use it mainly for Java development, but since the newer versions, I've played around with the new PHP support a little bit. I have to say it works rather nicely. NetBeans has a plethora of features, including excellent syntax highlighting, code completion, and high customizability. Add to that the fact that it's open source, and you can't go wrong!

    Although it runs (comparatively) slow and likes to chew HDD a lot, I consider it the best IDE among free ones. If you're in for some serious development, be sure to try it.

    Netbeans 6.8 has a embed Browser. This is a great feature.
