I use Notepad2 to edit all types of text files. It recognizes commom file types and formats the look of the file accordingly (colored font, italics, etc.). I use it to edit all of my .php and .css files, as well as .txt, .dat, .prn, .csv, etc. It handles line breaks properly also, unlike Windows Notepad. And Notepad2 is FREE, lightweight, and very robust. I used to use Dreamweaver to edit my .php, but it is so clunky and such a memory hog, I can't stand it anymore. Plus, using a text editor to write code keeps you more "in touch" with what you are writing.

Don't know what server software you are running but at work and at home I am on Redhat (not my workstations, my servers). I use SSH (http://www.ssh.com/support/downloads/) Gives me shell access and ftp client. I do my editing in emacs on the server. Cuts out the FTP middle man and makes for faster developing (save-reload instead of save-upload-reload) Plus your server does the work rather than waiting for things to upload.

I’m curious as to what Windows FTP, and text editors are available, besides Dreamweaver.
