I'm still nostalgic for Cold Fusion Studio 4. That was even back before Macromedia bought Allaire, but still today it would rank as the second best development environment for HTML and Javascript (after VS.NET, but only because it has a good debugger to offset its lame HTML & JS intellisense).

Then they folded it into Dreamweaver and ruined it completely by version 5.

I used to use that for all my development too and thought it was great at the time. I even wrestled with it's crazy syntax highlighter to get ActionScript colour coding working. The lack of Unicode support became a bit of a problem for me towards the end though.
