Courses Plus Student 29,439 PointsHi Jesper,
On a Mac you can use Coda, has some nice features but it costs $75 ( panic.com ). There is also Sublime Text which is free but it has a nag screen every 10 saves or so. The FTP upload part is a separate plug-in which costs but it's worth it in order to upload changes to a live server, but I guess Git can be used to do that as well.
On Windows, I was using Sublime Text since it's free and it works. The biggest feature which I haven't seen on too many IDEs and Sublime has is variable completion while you type and comes very handy when you have long camel-cased variable names...
Here's a list of other IDEs: http://code.tutsplus.com/articles/18-wonderful-ides-for-windows-mac-and-linux--net-5242
