My College in Cornwall, UK, teaches PHP at BTEC and HND Level. Mainly coz the lecturer hates the M$ way to things and it's easy to teach. Though I'm self taught for about 3-4 years, there is always something I've missed, so its just a general revision lesson for me.

I use PSPad on windows. www.pspad.com/en Easy, free, lightweight and can even be used as a portable app. Got the usual, syntax highlighting, with the majority of the major languages ready to be highighted. Built in FTP, so can edit easy too! On Linux I use MC (Midnight Commander) I tried vi back when I first started out, and could find out how to close it.. emacs freaked me out more....so I left it all behind me and went with MC. In KDE, I run Kate, nice program to use. On Mac, I use BBEdit or anything that is easy to use straight away or just lightweight to startup to do any minor changes, saves hogging it all the time.
