I've got around 14 IDE's installed for testing on my WinXP box right now, from Notepad++ to Netbeans, Aptana to Zend Studio. I'm trying to find one that will do what I need, but no luck finding a solution yet.
My goal is this:
The IDE is open and I'm working on a PHP file. Click a button or hit a hotkey...
My IDE sends the file I'm working on to an external app (Firefox, Lynx, Chrome, etc.) with any command-line parameters I specify, processes it, then returns the output (HTML source, in this case) back to my IDE in an output window and/or new file tab.
Seems like a simple request, right? ;)
For clarity, I'm not interested in downloading Win PHP binaries and simply running the script inside my IDE. I've got a virtual server setup (Virtualbox) which perfectly mirrors my live server and really want to use that for generating output and testing. Also, I'm trying to avoid switching back and forth between IDE and browser to check the source.
