well, i'm not sure what to do after your code is done, but as far as
editors go, theres a free one out there that does syntax highlighting
for a ton of languages (php included) called Vim... it comes with a
graphical version called gvim that i do all of my coding on. no
debugging features for php (afaik) but you can set up debuggers
through vim (never tried though). http://www.vim.org
Open up the file in vim and type:
gg=G
Turns this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function str_pad_html($strInput = "", $intPadLength, $strPadString = " ") {
if (strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))) < intval($intPadLength)) {
switch ($intPadType) {
// STR_PAD_LEFT
case 0:
$offsetLeft = intval($intPadLength - strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))));
$offsetRight = 0;
break;
// STR_PAD_RIGHT
case 1:
$offsetLeft = 0;
$offsetRight = intval($intPadLength - strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))));
break;
}
unset($strInput, $offsetLeft, $offsetRight);
return $strPadded;
}
else {
return $strInput;
}
}

into this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function str_pad_html($strInput = "", $intPadLength, $strPadString = " ") {
if (strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))) < intval($intPadLength)) {
switch ($intPadType) {
// STR_PAD_LEFT
case 0:
$offsetLeft = intval($intPadLength - strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))));
$offsetRight = 0;
break;
// STR_PAD_RIGHT
case 1:
$offsetLeft = 0;
$offsetRight = intval($intPadLength - strlen(trim(strip_tags($strInput))));
break;
}
unset($strInput, $offsetLeft, $offsetRight);
return $strPadded;
