 I know of no WYSIWYG editor that will create valid PHP code for you.

 I don't know of any WYSIWYG editor that will create HTML and CSS code

 Sorry, people have been chasing this elusive Chimera since the advent of

 That's not really a solution indicates that you don't understand the 
 problem.

 Sorry, don't mean to be harsh but the truth sometimes is.

It looks like you are really ignorant both about available tools and
about user requirements.  But I'm sure you think you know everything
so I won't touch that!

 Don't edit the file in Composer, use Notepad or other plain-text editor.

Why isn't it a solution if Composer doesn't understand PHP code?

Try [Aptana](http://www.aptana.com/) or [Eclipse desktop  web IDE] 
(https://www.eclipse.org/ide/)
