can anyone tell me what a good script editor would be that I can use? I need something that I can use with javascript, html and css

Dreamweaver comes to mind... I personally use a text editor, the code is much cleaner.

Personally I've been using Notepad++ more recently (on my windows machine) and VIM when I'm in a terminal.

Notepad++ has code folding which I like, an FTP plugin that isn't as buggy as some of the other editors.. and it seems fairly light-weight.

I assumed you were on windows hopesfall, since you didn't say.

The best script editor on the planet is vim if you're willing to take the time to learn it.

When I do work in Javascript (mainly with ExtJS) I have always used/enjoyed Aptana ( http://aptana.com/ ).

How much are you willing to spend or are you interested in a freeware app?

I use Textmate (http://macromates.com/) on Mac. It's absolutely brilliant.

On Windows I used Crimson Editor or Eclipse, but the latter is a bit too heavy to use as a simple programmer's editor.

crimson editor over here, great for php at least because it has syntax highlighting

I simply love Textpad. Simple and intuitive to use.
