What can I do to access my webserver and edit a php file?

You are dealing with security issues that are not trivial.

I can, and occasionally do, use an ssh login to my web host. There I can use VI

It's also possible with ssh or even ftp to download a file and edit it with - shhh MSWORD

Even notepad.exe is better than Word for this type of editing. But, you will almost certainly have EOL troubles.
