Favorite html/css/javascript/etc editor?

There are so many editors , my head spins. I have been using DW but I only use it as a text editor, nothing fancy, so I figure I ought to be able to find a better alternative out there.

I started doing my css/html in jEdit tonight, and I am enjoying it so far. But it's late: Me and jEdit are gonna go snuggle in bed in a little while.

What do you use?

Must admit I use dw everyday. Altho never use "design view".
Never liked aptana at all...
Use notepad ++ at home.

I almost always use WeBuilder, because of its great possibilities to create auto-completes, its very easily integrated PHP server (download), its internal preview in IE and FF without saving, its integrated FTP function, and lots, lots more. Not free, but well worth the money.

Ive only ever used aptana and dw. I come from a Graphic design background so I am admittedly biased in my love of DW. Although like most people I NEVER use design view, its too unreliable and it encourages sloppy code.

I'm not very picky, but Notepad++ is a FANTASTIC tool when you learn to use it.

I installed the zen coding plugin so I can expand selectors (html>body>div#test*3) to HTML in a keystroke.

Also, alt+select will select rectangles in your text. Try it!
