good web editor?

-----------------------------------

I am looking for a FREE website editor that I can use at work. Notepad is just to plain and Dreamweaver is to expensive. I am looking for something smiler to Dreamweaver (like microsoft office and open office) but unable to find one.
Some things I am looking for:
coloured syntax when editing
html
php
css
javascript
ext...website management
ftp
local
webdav
ext...syntax popup help
If anyone knows of a program or are using a program similar to Dreamweaver or at least contains the above list please let me know.

EDIT: has to be for windows!!!

I'm thinking something like TextMate for a Mac or possibly Eclipse for Windows.

It doesn't do any of the management or syntax popup stuff, but gedit is great for any kind of text work. I do my developing with sshfs (secure network filesystem), firefox (for viewing rendered pages and looking stuff up) and gedit for writing xhtml, php and css.

Actually for some tricky XHTML/CSS -- I write it straight in Firefox (with Firebug), and then copy it into the source files (Eclipse).

Dunno about the "website management" part, but Notepad++ is pretty excellent for just writing stuff.

Also, for a text editor with different macros and stuff... look into Crimson Editor.

The best tool for website management?

Taste.

I would second Notepad++. Just google it. We got our school to install it on PCs for this year. It's nice.

Not exactly what I had in mind.  

Taste is intangible, and yet it is the most tangible aspect of web programming.
