What is the best IDE for web?

[bio_n3t]

Hi everybody! I would like to ask what is the best IDE for web development?
I am currenty using Dreamweaver CS5.5 (not in design mode!!  ) but I would like to change for a free tools that is even better than DW.
I tried many editors, but they always have some problems or bugs or loss feature...
So what is the best editor (possibly free) for you?

I use a wysiwyg editor for web dev called bluefish but if you want an IDE you could check out Netbeans or Eclipse.

http://netbeans.org
http://www.geany.org
http://www.eclipse.org
http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html

Thank you for asking to my question, I tried bluefish but it's too simple, netbeans is great but it hasn't some feature that dreamweaver has... by the way thank you

I use, have always used and will always use Dreamweaver. Its a brilliant tool for web-stuff creation. Why change it?

@ande: I think the same, but i thought that in the "hacking comunity" Dreamweaver was considered ridiculous xD

Just depends how you use it and what you know. I dislike the people who use it because they dont know shit about HTML, PHP, Javascript, CSS and so on; and rely fully on the intelicense and templates etc. But those who use it as a neat tool for page preview while coding and use of the intelicense to write quicker and look things up on the fly etc is just fine.

I agree  do you know any site of free extensions for DW?

Netbeans 7.1, it got css3 support, this is the first release they got those freaking ugly and newbisch dreamweaver like CSS stylers.

I think netbeans will do very much more for a back-end dev, why? because the tools for netbeans are so much faster (in my opinion) and its much more focused on the actual coding, and the beautifull code completion, support for frameworks like ZEND etc.etc.etc

I have never ever met a good progressive back-end dev who uses dreamweaver, so if you are going to focus on code, i prefer netbeans

  "The NetBeans JavaScript editor provides code completion and integrated documentation for popular toolkits such as jQuery, Script.aculo.us, Prototype, etc. Download your favorite JavaScript toolkits, copy the files into your project, and the editor will automatically recognize them. "

I used it alot and it works out of the box.

Maybe is because I use the Google hosted version of jquery?
