Your Server

What PHP editor could I use on Linux to edit files on a remote server?

I'm a PHP newbie running Ubuntu. I'd like to create a PHP project on a remote Linux server. What is the easiest way to do this with an IDE? I tried installing Bluefish and Nvu on my computer, but I can't figure out how to edit files on a remote server through these programs. I can open the files on the remotes server with a text editor, but would prefer an IDE. Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm a good programmer but have little experience with web projects, so a lot of the language about ports and incoming connections bewilders me.

1. Any text editor that comes with your distro will work.
2. Normally I'd just ssh to the remote server and use vi. You can, of course, use sshfs to mount the remote directories locally and use whatever tools you have on your local machine to edit the files, such as Eclipse.
