Karen, Windows lets you mount FTP and WebDAV shares. Linux additionally has SSHFS. (Less likely to be useful, but also worth mentioning, are SMB and NFS.) These are all good ways to have a remote folder behave as though it were a folder or a drive on your local computer, which allows you to use pretty much any editor you like to remote edit files. Googling any of these terms will produce helpful howtos.
vim is wonderful, but has a rather steep learning curve. Notepad++ is a capable and free text editor has an FTP plugin.
