If you are thinking of trying emacs, the following link would be helpful. http://prajwalaa.wordpress.com/2009/03/19/using-emacs-to-edit-php-files/

It shows you how to setup php-mode and how to do syntax checking in emacs.

Notepad++ is a text editor and source code editor for Windows. Notepad++is definitely my favorite Notepad replacement because of the extensive features that it has built-in.I have used notepad++ and it give me a useful result. The main thing that makes Notepad++ fit well with the Firefox metaphor is the self-update check capability.

Notepad++ can show functions and parameter lists.

Settings -> Preferences -> Backup/Auto-Completion -> Check "Function parameters hint on input"

I also find Geany a very nice replacement for Notepad++ on Linux. It has function name auto-complete, and it shows parameter lists for built-in PHP functions. Very lightweight, even faster than Notepad++.

Vim or Emacs will show syntax while you're editing. One or the other ought to be available for Windows, or you can get them with Cygwin. Pick one or the other; they both have fairly steep learning curves. You can use them as just editors, or they both have some IDE functionality. Emacs probably more than Vim.
