PHP Development in Eclipse: Free Tools, PHP

I have been writing a CakePHP application and quickly realized I need something better for PHP development then Dreamweaver. I found PDT (Eclipse with PHP Plugins) and I am amazed at the helper tools they have for PHP developers. It has auto complete, tree view to browse functions and syntax highlighting. I probably haven't scratched the surface for its features.

I was blown away with PDT I am going to use it from now on for PHP development. I had to do one setup for PDT to recognize CakePHP's thtml files:

• Window->Preferences
• General->Content Types->PHP Content Type
• Add in *.thml

Thats it! I'm looking forward to better application development with Eclipse.
