Notepad2 and you're own brain. :rolleyes:

Well, DW doesn't code my PHP so I believe I can disregard that comment.
In fact, I never use any of the auto-generation tools in DW even if I code HTML. I just use it because it can clean up XHTML and warn me about errors easier.
Then again, you strike me as the kind of guy who would rather do everything the hardest way and believe that anyone who uses any form of visual help is a n00b coder, so continuing this is pointless.
