    PHP editor with code assist

    I am an ASP.net developer so I am used to code assist in Visual Studio.

    I am planning on developing a PHP ajax intensive applications for home use.

    So I am enquiring what is the best PHP developer/editor for Ubuntu. When I am mean code assist I am hoping to create classes, enums and have code assist index those as options.

    I have used Aptana for CSS & JS, and recently they have released a PHP module. So I am looking to go in that direction, so I was wondering are there other PHP editors with code assist like that?

    As for the Ajax framework I am looking at Symfony or Cake.


    Thanks

    any way I would suggest eclipse as it is the best "code completion" I have seen for php.

    I heard a lot about the latest version of NetBeans, but I didn't quite like it. I myself use Eclipse PDT. (I downloaded the All-In-One package from the website, unzipped it and start it like that. Installing all the required plugins in the outdated version that ships with Ubuntu is a pain in the ***.) Eclipse PDT can be seen as the free and stripped down version of Zend Studio for Eclipse although it has all the features you could possibly need. I use it at home and on a professional level and I'm happy with it.

    Some people report it as quite memory consuming since it's a Java application but it doesn't use more or less than Visual Studio on my system.
