I have used Netbeans, Eclipse and JGrasp before. In general I hate all of the crap that IDE's generate for you.
 
Smultron. No longer being developed, but it really is the best. skEdit if i need to edit remote files.
 
Eclipse 3.5 for coding
Google Code for Subversion repository
gimp for image editing
vi for server config and scripting

and... lastly... Google for their ability to search up scripts and other neat tutorials!

* Yeah I know it's old, but if it ain't broke... you know...
** Been watching too many Revision3 shows that I ended up using them
 
Occasionally fire up Dreamweaver CS4.

Webdrive
E-Text Editor

Those last two are my favorite combination. Webdrive lets you mount FTP/SFTP accounts to a drive. E-Text Editor is a windows version of Textmate. Supports bundles and lots of nifty triggers. I would use Notepad++, but I like the color schemes, bundles, and triggers of E-Text Editor so much now, I'd find it hard to move on.

Of course, I also use Firefox + Firebug + Several Firebug extensions.
IETester (I don't code for IE6, but I still like to look and see if it's working. Also nice for checking if your IE6 Upgrade Javascript is working.

Notepad
 
These days: Eclipse, Emacs, Gnome's Terminal (and Quake), Chromium, and Firefox.
In College: Emacs and a Terminal. :D

I used to write mostly C/C++ in college, but now in the "real" world I mostly do work with PHP and JavaScript.
 
Visual Studio WebDev 2008 Express Edition -- It's lighter weight than VS, and the code skeletons are pretty straight forward (with little gunk).

Notepad++ -- This is mostly for quick edits or throwing together quick pages where VS might be overkill.

Firefox + FireBug + Web Developer Toolbar -- this is probably the most important one. I use the above 2 for primarily XHTML / PHP / ASP coding. Once the structure and underlying functions are working as intended, just throw it into Firefox and start styling right in the browser with changes immediately displayed. It's kind of fun to see your page take shape while you write the code without having to constantly refresh, or reload your page.

Photoshop CS3 -- This is pretty straight forward.

My flow is pretty straight forward. I'll start in Photoshop and completely lay out the design for pages. My goal is to pretty much create all the elements of the pages within a single PSD. Hiding and showing layers allows me to show different kinds of pages (front page vs. content page, etc).

Once this is done, I slice out the necessary assets like logo's and gradients and store them. Then go through the sliced assets and remove the extraneous ones which Photoshop adds.

Depending on the site / client, my path branches here. Some clients want to see a mock-up of the page to iron out any design details, while others would like to first ensure the content / server-side aspects of the site are working.

For the former, I'll go directly into VS and start coding the XHTML framework and constructing the site itself. Then throw it into Firefox and start CSS'ing the whole thing. Once it's complete, I allow the client to evaluate. If they want any design changes, I take care of them now, and then move onto the back end coding. Once this is complete, I just have to go into the XHTML skeleton and replace the static content with PHP / ASP calls to return the necessary data.

For the latter, I code the back-end (or configure the CMS like Drupal or Joomla), and then create a very barebones XHTML + CSS template. It takes surprisingly little work to adapt it to Drupal or Joomla from there.
