My apologies, clearly Vim has a plenitude of features I'm not utilizing. But as far as auto-complete goes, I find it indispensable. But perhaps my ability to memorize an absurd number of API's is sub-par

Wow, I'm suprised Dreamweaver got this many votes, even if the topic is almost 4 years old. Didn't even realize they still make it. From my experience you're better off with Vim (which I do use for quick edits of config files but find lacking as an IDE). That said, the single feature I find most useful in an IDE is code completion. I suffer from what we Dutch refer to as "geheugen als een goudvis", which compares one's short term memory to the proposed 3 seconds of retention a goldfish possesses. Unfortunately this is also the feature that provides the biggest challenge to IDE developers in terms of performance when library size approaches he gigabyte. I've tried quite a few. PHPStorm seems perform best right now. ZSfE was awesome featurewise, I might give it another try to see if it performs better now

The polls probably needs Aptana as an option. I know at least three people that use that.

Maybe you should close it, unsticky, and restart with a link to this? I agree the current value of the results is pretty close to 0.

True, everybody does this whether they admit it or are even aware of it or not. But this is a first impression, opposing impressions (such as of the *actual* intelligence of a person) may follow. Nothing interesting about it, just painfully shortsighted. I mean, I'm all for some level of generalization (all Americans are fascist pigs!) because without some level you can never think in terms larger than your immediate environment (unless you're a supercomputer, in which case you should be banned because bots aren't allowed to post), but rejecting someones education of choice because of their appearance is not just generalization, this is blind willful ignorance of an individuals capabilities based on a generalization. Of course the brutish looking people are stealing all our jobs and women, so I guess it is allowed out of pure spite.

How so? It is quite possible to generate queries that will work using different SQL flavours. The key is though to NOT use any straight SQL. One interface is used to do the CRUD operations, different driver adapters for different RDBMS flavours will generate different SQL. It is not rocket science, just a LOT of work. What I would recommend is creating a wrapper around PDO, creating a separate adapter for MySQLi. Indeed some stupid hosts have MySQLi enabled but not PDO. But the two are similar enough to create a wrapper around both to get a unified interface. I would use the PDO interface as the base for it. I recently had to create a wrapper around mysqli for Doctrine (the current version really only supports PDO, but they do use a wrapper and a separated interface, which made it possible to create a wrapper around MySQLi that basically implemented the PDO methods that Doctrine uses, but with MySQLi as the backend.

你好，我想加入您的網站，但我不知道英語。我應該怎麼辦？

Give it a rest, he made something out of boredom, I imagine he cares less about XssMe warnings. Maybe find a different hobby? -- gotta be something you like to other than running Firefox plugins against random sites and colouring text. Wait, colouring, now there's an idea! I'm sure you can put that talent to better use.

Perhaps this topic will help you: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,227128.0.html Just need to squeeze in an end date and it should drop in nicely I think.

I doubt they use flash for this purpose though. Hardly any smart phones sport flash.

Although I imagine macs to be very popular for similar reasons as well:

Pardon? You're saying generic hardware behaviour that can be described as "slipping", "sliding", "wiring" and "opening" exists? I bet you didn't know that on Linux your hardware also "tickles" and "vibrates" (hence the increasing popularity amongst the ladies).

I use (Zend Studio for) Eclipse. Runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OSX.

Considering there are people who prefer coding in vim, let's just say it's a matter of preference. I personally prefer Ubuntu.
