not quite visual, but my favorite text editor, and many others, will do keyword and syntax highlighting and some other things for you as well as ftp opening and saving.

i know it has the ability to quickly add blocks of code for some languages, but i'm not sure about php.

anyway, php is server side, what's visual about it?

theres nothing visual about php - i mean to say that i'm looking for a program with someone what of a gui that will allow for drag and drop and things like that rather then typing code -

I think he wants something like dreamweaver that shows the visual layout of the code instead of textpading it then running. Is that right Neo?

Dreamweaver MX has some php functionality but i'm not sure how far it goes.

at the very least you can build a form with Dreamweaver and add the php code manually that will process that form. That is how i use it.

I have an older version though.

Well it all comes down to needing PHP installed. You could install Apache, PHP, and SQL on your system and test things locally but there is no program out there that does what you are asking.

If you use a program like EditPlus you can edit the files and save them directly to your webhost and then just click refresh on the page and test the script. That is what most people do.

if you are asking for a program that gives you a visual interface for building the layout of the site, any program with a WYSIWYG HTML editor built into it will do what you are wanting, because the visual aspect of any website, regardless of what server side scriting you may or may not be using, is HTML. So you can use a WYSIWYG HTML editor to build the HTML layout, and then go in and add your PHP code as needed.

If this is not what you are looking for, then I have no idea what you are asking, and thus have no suggestions for you. Sad

He wants to design a PHP website without learning to write PHP

open the program, setup your layout, and then from a menu, create all interactions that you want to be performed.

I understand it, but I've never liked giving away that much control of my code...

I can literally go into lwdcam.codecoma.com and explain what every single piece of code is for... and thats important to me!

requires Mac OSX

doesn't require Mac OSX, but might need English translation.

you can search Freshmeat yourself for more.
