I have never really used DW, so can you list a few DW features which you cannot live without? > There is no Opensource alternative anywhere near DW.

All you want is syntax highlighting? Gedit can do that pretty well afaik. Even comes with a few extra features such as snippets etc. > Eclipse and NetBeans have PHP plugins with syntax checking but no design > view. Is it a wysiwyg thing for UI? If so, imho its a pretty horrendous way to design UI now. I stick to emacs and comes with the best syntax highlighting possible for almost all languages I know of. It can extend the conventional syntax colouring and for eg, add bg colors to all color codes in the code(rainbow-mode). Please see the attached image. I'd suggest picking vim/emacs/sublime and not eclipse or even proprietary DW unless you are coding java(which is not coding but auto finishing everything). My 2 cents.
